Role of Nose to Pelvis Imaging in the Evaluation of Foreign Body Ingestion: A Case of Magnet Ingestion in a 2-Year-Old

Foreign body ingestion (FBI) of small-rare-earth-magnets (SREM) sets are associated with high morbidity and mortality, as these tend to cause significant mucosal injury. Current clinical guidelines for the evaluation of FBI do not include imaging of the nose and neck. A 2-year-old patient presented...

description Foreign body ingestion (FBI) of small-rare-earth-magnets (SREM) sets are associated with high morbidity and mortality, as these tend to cause significant mucosal injury. Current clinical guidelines for the evaluation of FBI do not include imaging of the nose and neck. A 2-year-old patient presented with known SREM ingestion, with location confirmed in the right lower quadrant on imaging at the time of initial evaluation. Subsequent imaging involving the neck revealed additional magnets lodged in the patient’s hypopharynx, which were missed on initial evaluation. This case highlights the importance of considering advanced imaging of the nose and neck to uncover extraintestinal foreign bodies.
