“…Given the wide range of possible IFBs, a multidisciplinary approach to manage such endovascular complication is mandatory, with an accurate clinical and imaging preoperative planning to choose the best approach and procedure. 3,[16][17][18] Nowadays, the endovascular approach is considered the first-line method for retrieving IFBs. [3][4][5][6] It offers a high success rate with a low associated morbidity.…”

The presence of an intravascular foreign body represents a well-known risk of serious complications. While in the past surgical removal of intravascular foreign body was the most common intervention, nowadays a percutaneous approach in the retrieval of an intravascular foreign body is widely accepted as the first-line technique. In the literature, many case reports describe different techniques and materials. This article summarizes and illustrates the main materials and techniques currently applied for percutaneous retrieval of intravascular foreign body, providing a simplified tool with different interventional possibilities, adaptable to different clinical situations.

Case summaryA 1-year-old, female spayed domestic shorthair cat with a 6 week history of upper respiratory signs and a progressive reluctance to move, which culminated in a right-sided hemiparesis, was found to have a sewing needle foreign body lodged in the brainstem. Surgical extraction of the needle was successful and the cat’s neurological deficits resolved over the days to weeks following its removal.Relevance and novel informationThis case report describes, to our knowledge, the first reported incidence and management of an ingested sewing needle migrating into the central nervous system of a cat.

“…Commonly migrated foreign bodies reported are fish bones from the population dependent on sea foods; uncommon are needles, toothpicks, wires, hairpin and dentures [3][4][5]. These have been found at various sites including the thyroid gland [6], common carotid artery [7], and mediastinum [2]. These foreign bodies in the neck had caused deep neck abscess [3,4], haematoma [3], thyroid swelling [6], injury to vessels [3,7,8] and even pseudoaneurysm of aorta [7].…”

Foreign body ingestion is a common presentation but the extraluminal migration of a foreign body is rare. A 46-year-old man presented with protruded sharp swelling left side of neck, X-rays and CT scan of the neck showed a needle migrating from the pyriform fossa to the skin. Carotid angiography was also done to see the relations of foreign body with great vessels. Transcutaneous removal of foreign body was done under general anesthesia. The migrated foreign body was a sewing needle which patient unknowingly swallowed two days back. Migrated ingested foreign bodies from the upper digestive tract have the potential to cause life-threatening complications. Cases of spontaneous expulsion of ingested foreign bodies to the skin of the neck are quite rare.
