Alternative surgical treatment in a case of voluntary ingestion of foreign bodies by Germán Brito Sosa, Ana María Iraizoz Barrios

“…Clinical case: The case is a 25-year-old male incarcerate patient who ingested several pieces of copper wire of different lengths, and due to the high risk of causing perforation, it was decided to perform an exploratory laparotomy and extraction of foreign bodies through a gastrotomy, and through the appendicular orifice without the need to open an intestinal loop. Conclusions: A possible method to extract the fine foreign bodies that manage to pass through the Trietz angle is to advance the foreign body through the appendicular orifice and perform a complementary appendectomy, thus achieving its extraction without performing an enterotomy.…”
