Abstract
Foreign-body ingestion may be accidental or intentional as in the cases of mental disorders, bulimia alcoholism, bipolar disorder, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder. When a foreign body is ingested, it may pass through the entire alimentary tract and out in the feces without any sequelae. But foreign body ingestion can result in gastrointestinal perforations in less than 1% of patients. By far fish bones are the most common objects that can perforate the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly in the distal ileum. While computed tomography can substantially aid in confirming, diagnosis is best made by laparoscopic exploration of the peritoneal cavity or laparotomy. We report the case of a fish bone perforating the distal ileum, resulting in a clinical presentation of acute abdomen, diagnosed and treated with laparoscopic surgery
