Removal of an Embedded Foreign Body in the Stomach by Submucosal Endoscopic Dissection Technique
We report a case of a patient with past hospitalization due to suspected foreign body gastric perforation as evidenced by CT, showing a linear structure crossing the upper wall of the gastric antrum. This object wasn’t visible endoscopically. The patient was discharged asymptomatic after conservative management. Six months later she reported recurrent epigastric pain. While endoscopy only revealed a small congestive area with an erosion at the antrum, the foreign body was located at the same site by CT. A gastric ESD was performed and enabled successful identification and removal of a fish bone embedded in the gastric wall.
