Ingestion of a Duck Bone That Lodges in a Jejunal Diverticulum Causing Localized Perforation Requiring Laparotomy and Small Bowel Resection

Accidental foreign body ingestion is common, particularly in elderly patients and denture wearers, even when they don't recall ingestion. CT scans are crucial for diagnosing minimally radiopaque foreign bodies and locating perforations. Management lacks standardized guidelines, so treatment decisions must be individualized between operative and conservative approaches.

Abstract

Accidental foreign body ingestion is common, particularly in elderly patients and denture wearers, even when they don't recall ingestion. CT scans are crucial for diagnosing minimally radiopaque foreign bodies and locating perforations. Management lacks standardized guidelines, so treatment decisions must be individualized between operative and conservative approaches.
