Core Tip |
Foreign body ingestion is common in China, but it is rare to cause perforation of the caecum. In cases of complications such as intestinal perforation, particularly when foreign objects are unintentionally ingested, the diagnosis of the etiology of acute abdomen is quite challenging. Doctors should recognize the importance of computed tomography, as it is crucial for their diagnosis and subsequent treatment. After an object has been ingested, the recommended first-line treatment is to remove it endoscopically. Patients should receive appropriate intervention to prevent complications. |
