Abstract

Left renal vein stenting is a preferable therapeutic option for patients with nutcracker syndrome (NS). As a potential complication of stent implantation, stent migration from the original placement to the right ventricle is relatively rare but can seriously threaten the patient's life. Endovascular stent retrieval is the most beneficial procedure for coping with this fatal complication. In this report, we aimed to describe an effective but relatively feasible endovascular approach using the combination of a goose neck snare and a large bore sheath for the retrieval of a stent dislodged in the right ventricle.
