Abstract
In recent years, interest in endovascular foreign bodies (IFB) has greatly increased, as evidenced by the increasingly high casuistry and the growing number of publications on this subject. Surely the increase in interventional procedures can be correlated either as the cause, due to the increasingly higher number of IFB iatrogenic, or to the increasing introduction into clinical practice of a number of techniques for the recovery of these.
