[Foreign bodies in the gastrointestinal tract. Our cases and a review of the literature].
Il Giornale di Chirurgia 1996 November
The ingestion or introduction of foreign bodies is a common situation in emergency surgery. The patients who usually ingest foreign bodies for different reasons are children, psychotics, alcoholics, prisoners and old people. The authors analyzed 65 cases observed in the I Institute of Surgery of the University of Rome "La Sapienza": 45 males and 20 females. Both the anal introduction and ingestion may be accidental or voluntary. The incidence of complications is estimated about 5 to 7%. The authors underline the opportunity of a conservative removal through endoscopic procedures especially for intraesophageal corps. This procedure is recommended to reduce morbidity and mortality rates, as well as hospitalization and social costs.
