By then it is too late. Keep track of the item before you delete it.

curidx = get(hObject, 'Value');
curstrings = get(hObject, 'String');
variable = curstrings{curidx};
curstrings(curidx) = []; %delete it in this list
set(hObject, 'String', curstrings); write new list in
Now the variable named "variable" will hold the string.
msgbox( sprintf('Deleting from list: %s', variable) );
