Renal artery injury during inferior vena cava filter removal with endobronchial forceps
Retrieval of tip-embedded inferior vena cava filters using endobronchial forceps is a well-described technique. The tip of dorsally tilted filters may be in proximity to the right renal artery, increasing the risk of arterial injury during retrieval. We present one case that illustrates renal artery...
