New means of foreign body localization and extraction using the Sadowsky Breast Marking System.
A thorough and concise review of the literature has revealed innumerous techniques available for localizing and retrieving foreign bodies within the foot. A new method of isolating and removing foreign bodies using the Sadowsky Breast Marking System (SBS) is presented. The SBS, in association with fluoroscopy, permits simple surgical implementation with accurate localization and extraction of foreign bodies, with the elimination of awkward, unpredictable, and time consuming retrieval techniques.
