Abstract

Foreign body ingestion is commonly seen in children. However, occasionally it may also be seen among adults and is often associated with intellectual disability, psychiatric disorders, and alcoholism. Ingestion of a magnetic foreign body may cause complications such as gastrointestinal tract perforation, wherein emergency endoscopic removal of the foreign body is generally required. Here, we report a rare case of a 59-year-old male with an intellectual disability and psychiatric disorder in whom metallic objects in the stomach cavity were accidentally discovered during abdominal CT. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed several metallic objects attached to two magnets, which had been ingested several years before and had remained in the stomach cavity. The magnets and metallic objects were safely removed endoscopically using rat-tooth forceps without complications.

胃磁性异物在摄入几年后偶然发现。
异物摄入常见于儿童。然而,偶尔也会在成年人中出现,并且通常与智力残疾、精神障碍和酗酒有关。磁性异物的摄入可能会导致并发症,如胃肠道穿孔,其中通常需要紧急内镜下清除异物。在这里,我们报告了一例罕见的59岁男性,他患有智力残疾和精神疾病,在腹部CT检查中意外发现了胃里的金属物体。食道胃十二指肠镜检查显示,两块磁铁上附着着几个金属物体,这些磁铁几年前被摄入,一直留在胃里。使用大鼠牙钳在没有并发症的情况下通过内窥镜安全地取出磁铁和金属物体。
