Devices, systems and methods for retrieving an intravascular filter from a body lumen are disclosed. A snare retrieval catheter in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include an elongated tubular member having a lumen configured to receive an elongated member. The elongated member extends axially through the lumen of the elongated tubular member, out the distal end of the catheter, and is looped-back such that both ends of the elongated member are located proximal the proximal end of the catheter. The portion of the wire extending distally from the distal end of the catheter forms an adjustable loop that can be used to ensnare a radial notch formed on the intravascular filter.
