Klaipeda University Hospital is a unique case. Doctors removed more than a kilogram of nails, bolts, nuts, razors, wood screws and other foreign bodies from the patient during stomach surgery.
According to the surgeon of Abdomen and Endocrine Surgery Šarūnas Dailidėnas, who performed the operation, foreign bodies in the gastrointestinal tract of patients are not rare, but this case is unique in its abundance.
The patient complained of abdominal pain. The person did not speak about the fact that he had been swallowing nails, British or other things for some time. This unexpected fact became apparent when foreign bodies were found on the X-ray image.
“Because such a large number of foreign bodies cannot be removed endoscopically, we urgently removed them surgically.” During the three-hour operation, with X-ray control, all, even the smallest foreign bodies were removed from the patient’s stomach “, Š. Carpenter.
After the operation, the patient’s condition is stable. After a successful surgery, he is monitored and treated in the hospital.
