AbstractBullet embolus is a rare complication of penetrating missile trauma. Removal of the bullet previously required surgery. We report the case of a 14-year-old with an hepatic vein bullet embolus following a gunshot wound to the left buttock. A transjugular approach was used to extract the bullet percutaneously with an Amplatzer gooseneck snare.
