The fantastic journey of a bullet: out with a snare.

Sunil S Raikar1, Saadeh B Jureidini, Ian C Balfour, Kathy Tinker.   

Abstract

Bullet embolus is a rare complication of penetrating missile trauma. Removal of the bullet previously required surgery. We report the case of a 14-year-old with an hepatic vein bullet embolus following a gunshot wound to the left buttock. A transjugular approach was used to extract the bullet percutaneously with an Amplatzer gooseneck snare.
