ABSTRACT
An intravascular bullet was retrieved percutaneously in a 17-year-old boy with the use of a modified 24-F Amplatz dilator. The dilator was modified by means of a longitudinal incision with removal of a wedge at the distal tip of the tapered portion of the dilator. The bullet, which was located in the left pulmonary artery, was removed via the right femoral vein. No complications occurred.
