Injuries to hand are common at work. Most of them are noticeable and can be managed. Complete foreign body removal depends on location and mechanism of injury. There are few reports of accidental injury by foreign body followed by delayed retrival of foreign body. We report this case of delayed removal of foreign body after 6 months hoping to expand the literature and to provide insight to prevent septic complications by early prompt detection and removal of foreign bodies.

Wooden foreign bodies are notorious to be fragile and get retained as bits and bobs in the orbit. A 50-year-old woman presented to casualty with complaints of loss of vision and pain in the right eye associated with discharge from a wound in right eye upper lid. On imaging, a wooden foreign body was seen as continuous track of air. Meticulous dissection and search were done to remove bits and bobs of the wood. Patient, however, after 15 days of primary surgery reported with pus collection over wound site. Keeping suspicion of remnant wooden body piece(s), imaging and further exploration were carried out, removal of a 1 cm residual wooden piece was done. Retained wooden foreign body should always be suspected in postoperative cases of intraorbital wooden foreign body with infection. A close follow-up and knowledge of the same stay useful to remove any needless apprehension both of patient and surgeon.

Abstract This paper presents a clinical case report of a golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) with foreign bodies (stones) in its proventriculus. The case deals with the identification, management and removal of foreign objects identified in the gastrointestinal tract. A surgical removal by proventriculotomy under general anaesthesia was attempted. The surgery and the recovery were uneventful, and the follow-up after six months revealed no complications. To the best of our knowledge, there are no other reports of successful foreign body removal by proventriculotomy in the golden eagle.

Foreign body in the urinary bladder is not very common. It may occur by self insertion or migration from neighboring organs. It represents a urologic challenge which requires prompt management and should be treated as emergencies. Most of the foreign bodies in the urinary bladder can be successfully removed endoscopically. Sometimes open surgical procedure may require in removing the foreign body. Removal of foreign body from urinary bladder may be quite challenging requiring imaginations & high level surgical skills. Here we reported a case of 29 years old mentally retarded man with an intravesical foreign body. We successfully removed the foreign body by endoscopic procedure under general anesthesia. In post operative follow up there was no voiding problem & patient was advised for psychiatric consultation. JCMCTA 2012 ; 23 (2): 47-49

Rectal Foreign Bodies

Introduction: Rectal foreign bodies (RFB) pose a challenge to emergency physicians. Patients are not often forthcoming, which can lead to delays to intervention. Thus, RFBs require a heightened clinical suspicion. In the emergency department (ED), extraction may require creative methods to prevent need for surgical intervention. Case Report: The authors present a case of a successful extraction of a RFB in the ED and review of the literature. Conclusion: Retained RFBs are an unusually problematic reason for an ED visit. Thus, it is important for emergency physicians to be comfortable managing such cases appropriately.

Abstract Background Ingested foreign bodies are a common presentation to paediatric ENT services. Depending on the site, these are usually managed with flexible or rigid oesophagoscopy and retrieval. This paper presents a novel technique for removing a hollow foreign body that could not be removed using conventional means. Method and results After rigid and flexible approaches failed, a guidewire was passed through the foreign body under fluoroscopic guidance and a dilatation balloon passed through the lumen of the object. Inflating the balloon allowed dilatation of the inflamed mucosa above and below the object, facilitating straightforward removal under traction. Conclusion This is a novel and reproducible technique that uses equipment readily available in tertiary referral centres. Employed in this context, the technique enabled removal of an impacted object surrounded by granulation tissue, and would be appropriate for other objects with a lumen.
