Unlabelled: Foreign bodies may access the oral cavity by trauma or iatrogenically. Iatrogenic foreign bodies that are frequently encountered include amalgam, obturation materials, shattered equipment, needles, broken teeth, and so on. Impaction of a tooth or bone fragment in the soft tissues is one type of dental trauma. When foreign bodies are found in the teeth, it's a highly grave scenario that requires prompt diagnosis. Thorough case histories, clinical assessments, and radiographic analyses are required to draw conclusions regarding the type, dimensions, location, and challenge of the foreign body retrieval. Due to the well-known tendency of children to put foreign objects in their mouths, it is more frequently observed in them. From time to time, children get strange items lodged in their teeth, which they are afraid to tell their parents about. These foreign objects might store possible infections, which could eventually result in a painful condition. This paper discusses the presence of unusual foreign bodies-a broken pencil and tooth fragment-and their management.

Objectives: The objective of the study is to describe a surgical technique of intestinal foreign body retrieval without gastrotomy using an endoscopic grasper and digital manipulation, and to compare short-term outcomes with patients who had similar obstructive intestinal foreign bodies removed via gastrotomy.

Materials And Methods: Medical records of dogs and cats with intestinal foreign bodies that underwent treatment with either the orogastric retrieval technique or gastrotomy between November 2021 and July 2023 were extracted. A comparison of the short-term outcomes was performed between the techniques.

"INSERT-COIN": A PROSPECTIVE STUDY OF COIN INGESTION IN CHILDREN OF SOUTHERN ITALY.

Am J Gastroenterol

December 2024

Pediatric Clinic, Department of Surgical and Biomedical Sciences, University of Perugia, 06123 Perugia, Italy.

Background And Aims: Coins are the most commonly ingested foreign bodies. When they get stuck in the distal esophagus there is no general agreement about the timing of their removal, since some of them may spontaneously migrate into the stomach, no longer requiring removal. We aimed at evaluating the gastric spontaneous passage of esophageal-retained coins, as well as complications.
