A novel magnetic loop basket safely and effectively removes ingested coins from the stomach fundus. This quick endoscopic procedure is successful for both ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic metallic coins.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Medical Devices
  • Endoscopy

Background:

  • Ingested coins are common upper gastrointestinal foreign bodies in India.
  • Standard retrieval tools face challenges, especially with coins in the stomach fundus.
  • Existing methods are limited by coin magnetism and accessibility issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of a newly designed magnetic loop basket.
  • To overcome limitations of traditional coin retrieval instruments.
  • To facilitate removal of coins lodged in the stomach fundus.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective study involving twenty patients with ingested coins.
  • Utilized a novel magnetic loop basket for coin retrieval.

  • Recorded procedure time, complications, and failure rates.

    • Main Results:

    • Successfully removed twelve ferromagnetic coins in a mean of 60 seconds.
    • Successfully removed eight non-ferromagnetic coins in a mean of 150 seconds.
    • No failures or complications were reported during the procedures.

    Conclusions:

    • The magnetic loop basket is a safe and effective endoscopic tool.
    • It provides a quick method for removing both ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic metallic coins.
    • This device addresses limitations of existing retrieval instruments.
