Most ingested foreign bodies pass through the gastrointestinal tract spontaneously, but a small number of cases lead to complications and necessitate surgical intervention. We present a rare case of an ingested fork handle that perforated silently through the colon and fistulated through the abdominal wall. This case highlights the importance of balancing the risks and benefits of surgical intervention and the multidisciplinary approach to complex situations.
大多数摄入的异物会自行通过胃肠道,但少数情况下会导致并发症并需要手术干预。我们报告了一例罕见的叉柄异物,该异物无声地穿透结肠并通过腹壁形成瘘管。该病例强调了平衡手术干预的风险和益处以及多学科方法处理复杂情况的重要性。
