title: Percutaneous retrieval of a deformed guidewire by a modified snaring technique.
abstract: An attempt to percutaneously remove a guidewire from the inferior vena cava was hampered by kinks developing in the wire during snaring. A modified technique was adopted that permitted its retrieval, obviating the need for a formal venotomy.
