Endoscopic removal successfully treated two children with stomach perforations caused by ingested foreign bodies. One foreign body migrated into the chest cavity, requiring complex management.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Gastroenterology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Ingested foreign bodies are a common pediatric emergency.
  • Gastric perforation is a rare but serious complication.

Observation:

  • Two pediatric cases of ingested foreign bodies causing gastric perforation are presented.
  • One case involved a foreign body migrating into the thoracic cavity.

Findings:

  • Successful endoscopic retrieval of perforated gastric foreign bodies was achieved in both cases.
  • Minimally invasive endoscopic techniques are effective for managing complex foreign body ingestions.

Implications:

  • Highlights the potential for serious complications from ingested foreign bodies in children.
  • Emphasizes the critical role of prompt endoscopic intervention in preventing further morbidity.
