Abstract | Most ingested foreign bodies pass through the gastrointestinal tract spontaneously, but a small number of cases lead to complications and necessitate surgical intervention.

This case highlights the importance of balancing the risks and benefits of surgical intervention and the multidisciplinary approach to complex situations. |
