Foreign body ingestion is a common problem in pediatric age. Foreign bodies in the lumen of appendix is a well known event. In this condition perforation or appendicitis may occur even for blunt or sharp objects. For these reasons, in case of stasis of foreign body in the lumen of appendix a prophylactic appendectomy is recommended. A case of asymptomatic ingested cutting foreign body in the appendix is presented and the approach is discussed according to the literature data.
异物摄入是儿童期常见的问题。阑尾腔内有异物是一种众所周知的情况。在这种情况下,即使是钝性或尖锐物体也可能导致穿孔或阑尾炎。出于这些原因,如果阑尾腔内有异物滞留,建议进行预防性阑尾切除术。本文介绍了一例阑尾内无症状摄入切割性异物的病例,并根据文献资料讨论了处理方法。
