Ingestion of neodymium magnet spheres: Three case studies

Accidental ingestion of magnetic spheres in children.

Magnetic foreign body ingestion can have a very serious sequale if multiple or combined with another metal object inside the abdomen. We report 2 cases of ingestion of rare-earth magnets with a very different consequences. This adds to the world's literature on this topic.

Single Magnet Ingestion- Individualizing the Algorithm.

We present a case that encouraged us to revisit the management algorithm in single magnet ingestion [1]. A child had undergone a double-barrel sigmoid colostomy for anorectal malformation during neonatal period, with a plan for staged surgical repair. At four years of age he presented to the surgeon after ingestion of a single small magnet. The magnet was visible in the epigastrium on radiograp...

Multiple magnet ingestion resulting in small bowel perforation: a case report.

Foreign body ingestion is a common clinical situation that is primarily diagnosed by emergency clinicians. Most foreign bodies can be evacuated without difficulty. Although rare, magnets that reach the lower intestinal tract may cause complications such as intestinal fistula formation, perforation, volvulus or appendicitis. We report herein a two-year-old girl who was admitted to our department...
