description A sixty-year-old man was admitted due to chest pain. He had a history of pelvic bone fracture fixation with Kirschner wire about 20 years earlier. On examination, we detected a Kirschner wire that had migrated into the right ventricle. Without cardiopulmonary bypass, we removed the migrating Kirschner wire via median sternotomy. The patient recovered without complications and was discharged on the 5th postoperative day.
