Foreign Body Removal by Snare Loop: During Intracranial Stent Procedure
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a case of successful retrieval of an intracranial stent using a snare wire. A 52-year-old woman presented with left border zone infarction. On cerebral angiography, the C6 segment of the left internal carotid artery (ICA) showed significant stenosis. We attempted stenting of the lesion, although stent dislodgement occurred in the ICA C4 segment. We successfully removed it using a snare loop, and there were no complications during the procedure.

Endoscopic removal of a proximally migrated pancreatic stent using a gooseneck snare.
The effectiveness of pancreatic stents for prevention of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis is widely recognized [1]. However, proximal migration of a pancreatic stent is occasionally encountered, potentially necessitating surgical intervention [2,3]. A gooseneck snare (Amplatz GooseNeck Microsnare Kit; Covidien, Irvine, California, USA), which was originall...
متن کاملRetrieval of distorted pipeline embolic device using snare-loop.
BACKGROUND Flow-diverter stents are increasingly being used in the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Because of this increased usage, the occurrence of stent malpositioning, intra-arterial distortion, or migration will likely increase as well. METHODS We describe the conformational twisting and deformity of a pipeline embolic device (PED) stent (Covidien, EV3) within the carot...
متن کاملEndoscopic removal of a proximally migrated biliary stent using a novel gooseneck snare: the "EndoCowboy".
Proximal migration often occurs as an adverse event of biliary stent placement, with a reported migration rate of 3.1%– 4.9% [1]. Although various techniques have been reported for endoscopic removal of proximally migrated biliary stents, the procedure is still technically demanding and time-consuming, and occasionally unsuccessful [2–4]. We describe a useful technique for endoscopic removal of...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the utility and advantages of the coaxial snare technique in the retrieval of tubular foreign bodies. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using the coaxial snare technique, we attempted to retrieve tubular foreign bodies present in seven patients. The bodies were either stents which were malpositioned or had migrated from their correct position in the vascular system (n=2), a fragment...
