  • Title: Percutaneous Interventional Radiology-Operated Endoscopy for Foreign Body Removal.
    Author: Khayat M, Khayat A, Chick JFB, Healey TL, Srinivasa RN.
    Journal: Tech Vasc Interv Radiol; 2019 Sep; 22(3):149-153. PubMed ID: 31623755.
    Abstract:
    Image-guided retrieval of endovascular devices such as inferior vena cava filters, guidewires, and stents is well reported, though there is a paucity of published reports on biliary, genitourinary, or gastrointestinal foreign body retrieval utilizing percutaneous endoscopy, particularly when it is performed solely by interventional radiologists. In cases of failed traditional endoscopic techniques or to evade more invasive surgical options, percutaneous endoscopy can be an adjunctive tool employed by interventional radiologists to extract foreign bodies. In this article, clinical evaluation, perioperative management, and procedural techniques for biliary, genitourinary, and gastrointestinal endoscopy for foreign body retrieval are reviewed.
