Foreign body granuloma is an inflammatory tissue reaction around retained foreign bodies after penetrating trauma. The granulomatous reaction is a natural mechanism of the body to heal wounds by restricting the damage done by a pathological agent and containing the pathological agent to the wound site only. Here we present a classic case of a foreign body granuloma on the dorsal aspect of the forearm. This case was evaluated radiologically on high-frequency ultrasound and X-ray imagining and was operated on afterward. A piece of broken glass bangle was found inside the granuloma.
异物肉芽肿是穿透性创伤后围绕残留异物的一种炎症组织反应。肉芽肿反应是机体通过限制病原体造成的损害并将病原体仅局限于伤口部位来愈合伤口的一种自然机制。在此,我们呈现一例发生在前臂背侧的典型异物肉芽肿病例。该病例通过高频超声和X线成像进行了放射学评估,随后接受了手术。在肉芽肿内发现了一块破碎的玻璃手镯碎片。
