Foreign bodies of the gastrointestinal tract in children of younger age group are the quite frequent pathology. In most cases, they pass unhindered through the gastrointestinal tract. However, serious complications requiring the urgent surgical treatment may occur. In our clinical practice, there was a case of the presence of a foreign body (coins) for 2 weeks in the disconnected part of the colon-colon anastomosis in an earlier operated child for ulcerative necrotic enterocolitis complicated by colonic stenosis that could not be detected during fibrocolonoscopy. Thanks to an individual approach to the patient, it became possible to remove a foreign body without opening the gut.

In children, foreign bodies of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) are common, 80-90% of them pass through the GIT without any problem. However, in some cases the clinical picture of peritonitis, intestinal obstruction, bleeding develops, which requires surgical treatment. Described in the article the clinical observation of acute intestinal obstruction in an 11-month-old child, after he has swallowed a hydrogel ball, will be useful for practicing pediatric surgeons.

AbstractThe presence of a foreign body in the gastrointestinal tract constitutes a common pathology, considering surgical clinical practice. The management of the ingestion of a foreign body depends on many factors. The study presented a case of a 33-year-old female patient subjected to surgical treatment, due to deliberate swallowing of a balloon. The above-mentioned was the amateur equivalent of intragastric balloon insertion, inducing weight loss. This is a rare cause of a foreign body ingestion, seldomly found in literature data. The patient reported to the Emergency Department on the second day after ingestion with symptoms of mechanical subobstruction, and after initial diagnostics, was qualified for surgery. The postoperative period proved uneventful. The study illustrated the often unfavourable access to false data on the internet, which may stimulate towards the above-mentioned behaviour.

Final Treatment

The management of foreign bodies in the gastrointestinal tract is not standardized. Foreign body ingestions in prisoners are always intentional and inmates can be manipulative, which makes medical decision even more difficult. Our objective is to propose a decisional algorithm for management of foreign body ingestion in prisoners. We reviewed the records of 198 admissions for foreign body ingestion for a 10-year period. Type and number of ingested foreign bodies, radiographic findings, outcome as well as the management method including conservative, endoscopic removal, or surgical treatment were analyzed. Most cases were managed conservatively (87.6%). Endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract was performed in 37 cases with a success rate of 46 per cent. In 9.3 per cent of cases, the final treatment was endoscopic. Only five patients required surgical treatment, being emergent just in one case. We advocate conservative treatment for asymptomatic patients with foreign body ingestion. Endoscopic removal is proposed for pointed objects or objects bigger than 2.5 cm located in the stomach. Objects longer than 6 to 8 cm located in the stomach should be removed by endoscopy or laparoscopy. Patients with objects in the small bowel or colon should be treated conservatively unless there are complications or they fail to progress.

Boyko V.V., Makarov V.V., Sochnieva A.L., Kritsak V.V.Residual foreign bodies in soft tissues are one of the main causes of chronical infection lesions and decrease in life quality. Surgical treatment is the most common way to relieve the patient from a foreign body. Often there is a question whether to remove a foreign body? On the one hand, all foreign bodies that are in the human body must be removed. On the other hand, in the absence of symptoms, the risk of surgery performed for the purpose of removal exceeds the risk associated with finding the foreign body. We would like to describe a practical case of removing a foreign body (Kirschner`s wires) from the left supraclavicular region. The young patient lived with a fragment of Kirschner's wire left after the osteosynthesis of the fractured clavicle for 5 years. Surgery to remove the residual foreign body was successful. On the 7th postoperative day the patient was discharged from the hospital under the supervision of surgeons at the place of residence.Key words: foreign body in soft tissue, Kirschner`s wire, surgical treatment. КЛІНІЧНИЙ ВИПАДОК ВИДАЛЕННЯ ЗАЛИШКОВ СТОРОННЬОГО ТІЛА З ЛІВОЇ НАДКЛЮЧИЧНОЇ ОБЛАСТІБойко В.В., Макаров В.В., Сочнева А.Л.,  Крицак В.В.Залишкові чужорідні тіла м'яких тканин залишаються однією з основних причин виникнення вогнища хронічної інфекції та зниження рівня якості життя. Хірургічне лікування основний спосіб позбавити хворого від наявності чужорідного агента. Часто виникає питання чи видаляти чужорідне тіло. З одного боку, усі сторонні тіла, що знаходяться в тілі людини, підлягають видаленню, з іншого боку при відсутності симптомів ризик операції, проводимої з метою видалення, перевищує ризик, пов'язаний з перебуванням чужорідного тіла. Ми хотіли б поділитися випадком видалення залишкового стороннього тіла (спиці Кіршнера) лівої надключичної ділянки із власної практики. Молода пацієнтка прожила з уламком спиці Кіршнера, залишеної після металлоостеосинтезу поламаної ключиці протягом 5 років. Операція з видалення залишкового стороннього тіла пройшла успішно. На 7 післяопераційну добу пацієнтка була виписана зі стаціонару під спостереження хірурги за місцем проживання.Ключові слова: чужорідне тіло м'яких тканин, спиця Кіршнера, хірургічне лікування. кЛИНИЧЕСКИЙ СЛУЧАЙ УДАЛЕНИЯ ОСТАТКОВ ИНОРОДНОГО ТЕЛА ИЗ ЛЕВОЙ ПОДКЛЮЧИЧНОЙ ОБЛАСТИ Бойко В.В., Макаров В.В., Сочнева А.Л.,  Крицак В.В.Остаточные инородные тела мягких тканей остаются одной из основных причин возникновения очага хронической инфекции и снижения уровня качества жизни. Хирургическое лечение основной способ избавить больного от наличия чужеродного агента. Часто возникает вопрос удалять ли инородное тело? С одной стороны, все инородные тела, находящиеся в теле человека, подлежат удалению, с другой стороны при отсутствии симптомов риск операции, производимой с целью удаления, превышает риск, связанный с нахождением инородного тела. Мы хотели бы поделится случаем удаления остаточного инородного тела (спицы Киршнера) левой надключичной области из собственной практики. Молодая пациентка прожила с обломком спицы Киршнера, оставленной после металлоостеосинтеза поломанной ключицы в течении 5 лет. Операция по удалению остаточного инородного тела прошла успешно. На 7 послеоперационные сутки пациентка была выписана из стационара под наблюдение хирурги по месту жительства.Ключевые слова: инородное тело мягких тканей, спица Киршнера, оперативное лечение.

Background: Foreign body ingestion and food bolus impaction is a common clinical scenario and can present as an endoscopic emergency. Though majority of them pass spontaneously 10-20% require endoscopic intervention. Flexible endoscopy is recommended as therapeutic measure with minimal complications. The aim of our study is to present 2 years’ experience in dealing with foreign bodies in the upper gastrointestinal tract.Methods: Cases of foreign body (FB) ingestion admitted to department of general surgery from January 2015 to December 2016 were evaluated. The patients were reviewed with details on age, sex, type of FB, its location in gastrointestinal tract, treatment and outcome.Results: A total of 23 cases were studied. Age range was 2-75 years. Males were predominant (60.87%). Coins were found most commonly (52.17%). Esophagus was the commonest site of FB lodgment (65.22%). Upper esophagus being the most common (39.13%). Upper gastrointestinal flexible endoscopy was useful in retrieving FB in all the 23 cases. There were no complications throughout the study period.Conclusions: Flexible endoscopy should be used as definitive treatment and endoscopic treatment is safe and effective.

Background Ingested foreign body impaction on upper gastrointestinal tract is common incidence among children, older age group, mentally challenged individuals, and people the influence of alcohol. In most cases, the foreign bodies pass spontaneously and uneventfully but when this does not occur; endoscopic management to ensure removal under direct visualization is required. Relief upon removal of foreign body and prevention of complications is essential. Objective To assess the endoscopic management and outcome of foreign body impacted in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Method This is a hospital based observational retrospective cross sectional study involving 165 patients at Endoscopy Department of Dhulikhel Hospital in Nepal between November 2015 and October 2019. The data regarding the demographic profile, clinical characteristics and endoscopic findings were retrieved and analyzed to determine endoscopic interventions performed, complications and outcomes. Result One hundred and sixty five patients presenting with history of ingestion of foreign body were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 46.8 ± 19.1 years with male predominance (60%). The most common site of foreign body impaction was oesophagus (70%). The most common foreign body encountered was bone (62.2%) among which chicken bones (91.1%) were most frequent. For the retrieval of sharp-pointed foreign bodies, rat forceps and graspers (45.7%) were most commonly used. Total 14 cases required rigid oesophagoscopy as the foreign body could not be retrieved by flexible endoscopy. Conclusion Foreign body ingestion and its impaction in the upper gastrointestinal tract has been found to be common in endoscopic practise. Early detection and timely removal of foreign bodies is of utmost importance to avoid discomfort to the patient as well as to ensure successful removal without complications.

Background: An accidently ingested foreign body may get lodged within the lumen of gastrointestinal tract, pass uneventfully with feces or may migrate extraluminally into the surrounding tissues in which case it may lead to suppurative or vascular complications. The aim of the endeavor was to study the spectrum of imaging findings in patients with accidental ingestion of foreign bodies with trans-gastric migration of metallic foreign bodies.Methods: Total 33 patients with history of accidental ingestion of foreign bodies were subjected to preliminary radiograph of neck, chest and abdomen followed by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Failure to retrieve/ localize foreign body endoscopically from upper gastrointestinal tract with check radiograph reiterating the presence of foreign body in upper abdomen were subjected to computed tomography of abdomen.Results: A total of 33 patients comprising of 27 females and 6 males with mean age of 23.76 years with history of foreign body ingestion were studied. Ingested foreign bodies were lodged in pharynx (n=7), esophagus (n=3), stomach (n=13) or duodenum (n=3).  In 7 patients in whom endoscopy failed to locate and/or retrieve foreign body, computed tomography confirmed the presence of trans-gastrically migrated foreign body in the surrounding structures. The location of migrated foreign bodies was in lesser sac (n = 2), greater omentum (n = 3), lesser omentum (n = 1) and transmural (n = 1). Two patients had evidence of collection formation around the migrated foreign bodies.Conclusions: Sharp or pointed metallic foreign bodies may migrate trans-luminally with various implications. Though radiography is the preliminary workhorse for the confirmation of ingested foreign bodies, computed tomography owing to its volumetric data acquisition helps in exact localization of migrated foreign bodies and should precede any therapeutic intervention for retrieval of migrated foreign bodies.
