Abstract Background The aim of this study was to characterize patients who ingested multiple rare-earth magnets, reveal the harm of rare-earth magnet foreign bodies in the digestive tract, and develop a clinical management algorithm. Methods This was a retrospective review of patients with rare-earth magnet foreign bodies in the digestive tract admitted to a university-affiliated pediatric medical center in China, between January 2016 and December 2019; the subset of medical data evaluated included clinical symptoms, signs, treatments and outcomes. Results A total of 51 cases were included in this study, including 36(70.6%) males and 15(29.4%) females. The magnets were passed naturally in 24(47.1%) patients and removed by intervention in 27(52.9%) patients, including 5(9.8%) cases by endoscopy and 22(43.1%) cases by surgery. Twenty-two (43.1%)cases had gastrointestinal obstruction, perforation, and fistula. Compared with the non-surgical group, the time of the surgical group from ingestion to arriving at the hospital was longer([80(5–336) vs 26(2–216)]hours, p < 0.001) while there was no significant difference in the mean age or the number of magnets swallowed. Conclusions Magnets are attractive to children, but lead to catastrophic consequences including gastrointestinal obstruction, perforation, and surgical interventions when ingested multiple magnets. Endoscopic resection should be urgently performed in the presence of multiple magnets as early as possible within 24 h, even in asymptomatic patients.

ABSTRACT Ingested foreign body is one of the most frequently encountered emergencies in otolaryngology practice. Many of these foreign bodies get lodged in the upper digestive tract and can be removed endoscopically. Few of these foreign bodies can perforate the upper digestive tract and an even smaller number of these can migrate extraluminally. Although, a migrating foreign body can remain quiescent, they can cause life-threatening suppurative or vascular complications; hence, location and removal is essential. Here we report two cases of extraluminal migration of foreign body which was removed by neck exploration. How to cite this article Divya GM, Hameed AS, Ramachandran K, Vinayak KV.

Objective: This study used phased array imaging algorithm to explore the epidemiological characteristics of endoscopic treatment of upper gastrointestinal foreign bodies to provide a basis for nursing intervention. Methods: We collected data on the age, sex, cause, type of foreign body, success rate of removal, retention location, time and complications of patients with foreign bodies in the upper gastrointestinal tract who were treated in the emergency department of the Digestive Endoscopy Center in our hospital. The study was conducted from January 2018 to December 2020 and we also performed statistical analysis. Results: The high incidence of foreign bodies in the upper digestive tract was in 45 years old to 74 years old patients. The foreign body types were mostly food balls and sharp foreign bodies, accounting for 37.0% and 44.2%, respectively. The cause was misuse and the most accounted for 52.1%, followed by oesophageal pathological stenosis which accounted for 45.5%. The oesophagus in the retention site accounted for up to 80.0%, and the success rate of foreign body extraction was 96.4%. The complications of patients with foreign body retention within twenty four our retention were mainly esophageal scratches and traumatic esophagitis, accounting for 48.5%. 39.6%. Conclusion: There are high risks in the treatment of foreign bodies in the upper digestive tract. Targeted, prospective, and streamlined nursing interventions can provide patients with fast and professional medical care services and minimize patient pain. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.37.6-WIT.4858 How to cite this:Liu N.

Background: Foreign bodies are most commonly diagnosed in stomach (proventriculus and gizzard) of galliformes birds and waterfowl. Endoscopyis routinely used to assess birds’ respiratory, gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts. Endosurgeryis also used for sex determination and intra-coelomaticorgan biopsy. Benefits of endoscopic approaches are widely reported in birds. Conventional surgical approaches are far more invasive and risky for those patients. Thus, the purpose of this study was to describe a successful case of gizzard foreign body removal in a greylag goose (Anseranser), using a rigid endoscopic approach through a minimally invasive percutaneous access. Case: A 2-year-old female greylag goose, weighting 3,116 g, was referred to a Veterinary Teaching Hospital presenting apathy and anorexia for at least 24 h. The results on hematologic assessment were within normal range for the species. Radiographic examination indicated presence of radiopaque content, resembling gizzard sediment. Thus, the patient undergone to endoscopy for examination and aspiration of the content. The goose was fasted for 6 h. Anesthesia was induced by face mask and maintained by endotracheal tube, using isoflurane vaporized in 100% oxygen. The patient was positionedin the lateral recumbence. The patient’s neck was longer than the working length of the rigid endoscope. Thus, the telescope was inserted into the esophagus following a small distal esophagotomy, carried out on the caudal third of the neck. A 0º 10-mm operative rigid telescope, with a 6-mm working channel, and a 5-mm diameter and 42-cm in length laparoscopic Babcock forceps were used. The endoscope was inserted through the esophagotomy up to the ventricle level. Sand sediments and stones were viewed. The stones were grasped and retrieved, and the sediments were rinsed with normal saline solution and aspirated with a suction cannula through the working channel of the telescope. Inspection following sediment and foreign body retrieval revealed moderate inflammation of the gizzard mucosa. Total procedure time was 24 min. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged following 72 h. Discussion: Rigid endoscopy provided accurate visualization of the thoracic esophagus, proventriculus and gizzard. In general, endosurgery is usually employed for sex determination in birds. It is also useful to access digestive tract using rigid endoscopy, in order to remove foreign body. Such minimally approach reduces postoperative morbidity, which is usually seen following conventional surgical approaches. This technique has been used for removal of foreign body in the digestive tract of several species. Foreign bodies found within crop should require ingluviotomy. However, could be easily removed by endoscopy. If the foreign body is within the proventriculus or gizzard, rigid endoscopy may be useful, as celiotomy could cause morbidity. The small esophagotomy access at the base of the neck was essential for the procedure. In short-necked birds, a 30º Trendelenburg positioning provides more caudal access to the digestive tract. In this case, such positioning was unnecessary. In conclusion, the use of an operative telescope provided accurate retrieval of foreign bodies and drainage of sediments within the digestive tract. Moreover, it can be used as a minimally invasive approach to foreign bodies in the esophagus, crop or stomach (esophagus and gizzard) of geese.
