Surgical retrieval is associated with high morbidity; however, appears to be the procedure of choice.…”

Peripheral venous stent migration is an exceedingly rare complication of endovascular stenting. In this clinical vignette, we present a case of a 74‐year‐old male with a history of endo‐venous laser ablation therapy of the right greater saphenous vein complicated with an occlusion requiring a left iliac vein stent. The patient presented to the clinic months after the procedure with complaints of palpitations. Multimodality imaging revealed a stent that had become dislodged and was now located in the right ventricle, trapped within the tricuspid valve apparatus.

In the past decade, percutaneous endovenous stenting has emerged as the primary procedure for treating symptomatic venous outflow obstruction. Stent migration is a rare but serious and well-recognized complication of venous stenting. Cardiopulmonary complications following stent migration can manifest in a number of ways, including damage to the valves, arrhythmias, endocarditis, tamponade, and acute heart failure. Both extracardiac and intracardiac dislodgement of stents may be treated with catheter-directed extraction, stent redeployment, or surgical extraction. The decision on the type of procedure depends on multiple factors including the location of the stent, the size and accessibility of the stent, the symptoms, the extent of damage to the vital structures, and the overall health of the patient. We present the case of a 68year-old male who presented with tachycardia. On further evaluation and workup, he was found to have an iliac venous stent that had migrated to the right atrium.
