AbstractThe removal of intravenous catheters that embolized into the vena cava superior and the right atrium, is described. This is done with a "Dormia basket", in conjunction with a controllable Medi-Tech-Selection-Catheter. This set is especially suited for the removal of intracardial foreign bodies. The extraction of a catheter is a relatively expedient procedure without undue discomfort for the patient.
