Description
A woman in her 50s presented with left flank pain after eating fish. She was hospitalized by clinical suspicion of small-intestinal penetration by a fish bone, diagnosed with a CT scan. Physical examination on her initial visit revealed mild abdominal tenderness in her left flank region. On the same day, a CT image revealed a high-density line substance in the left middle abdomen, suggesting the presence of a fish bone. A fluoroscopy revealed a long and narrow foreign body, which was clearer than a fish bone, in the left of the umbilicus. Under a diagnosis of peritonitis related to small intestinal penetration by a metallic foreign body, we performed emergency surgery. After we examined the peritoneal cavity under a laparoscope, we detected a needle-like substance in the greater omentum of the left flank, and removed. It was identified as a metallic wire.
