2 year old boy with History of magnet ingestion 1 month before. Admitted in for acute bowel obstruction.

Thank you prof for presenting this case, what are the intra-operative findings ?

strangulated midbowel or incarcerated Internal hernia

another case of multiple Magnets ingestions (case of dr Abdullah Alsheri, associate professor and consultant pediatric surgeon king Saud university medical city, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia)

 

Recently we have done a case in which 7 ,8 years old boy ingusted two magnets which led to their obstruction at DJ level. The gut between two magnets was sloughed off leading it to perforation I will share pictures also. it was a difficult case and late presentation with biliary peritonitis.we did primary repair and applied grahms patch omentopexy. Patient got admitted in intensive care unit and discharged.
