| Core Tip |
This case highlights the importance of considering atypical causes like gastrointestinal foreign body perforation in patients with altered postoperative anatomy presenting with recurrent fever and abdominal pain. Despite extensive workup, the cause remained elusive until deep push enteroscopy identified an embedded fish bone in the efferent jejunal limb of a post-Whipple patient. This was only possible after a thorough review of the computed tomography imaging, which showed a subtle linear hyperdensity. This case demonstrates the value of critical image review and advanced endoscopic techniques in diagnosing obscure gastrointestinal pathology in complex post-surgical patients. |
