— There are several reports of intravesical foreign bodies, but those due to migration from adjacent organs or tissues are unusual. We report a case of an intravesical acetabular prosthesis in an 81-year-old woman, who 24 years before had a total left hip replacement for severe coxarthrosis, with subseguent removal of the femoral head 3 years later due to rejection. Our case is unusual for the long latency, lack of severe complications and absence in literature of reports of acetabular prosthesis as an intravesical foreign body.

ABSTRACT Foreign bodies in the paranasal sinuses after critical accidents are rare occurrences that have sporadically been reported worldwide. Firearm projectiles, daggers, knives, glass fragments, stones, teeth, and wood can get lodged in the soft and hard tissues of the face. The management and prognosis in these cases depend on the composition and location of the foreign body as well as on the presence or absence of infection. Although there are reports involving the soft tissues of the face, the ethmoid, sphenoid, frontal, and maxillary sinuses are the most frequently involved sites. The main manifestation of this condition is sinusitis arising from infection and/or inflammation caused by the foreign body, which is a contaminated object. We report a case of removal of a firearm projectile located in the maxillary sinus of a 34-year-old patient under local anesthesia.
