Sumario: | A 9‐year‐old castrated male Kaninchen dachshund dog weighing 4.18 kg was referred to our institution and presented with occasional vomiting and dysphagia. The radiographic examination revealed a long radiopaque foreign body located throughout the thoracic oesophagus. Endoscopic removal was attempted using laparoscopic forceps but was unsuccessful as the foreign body was too large to be grasped. A gastrotomy was therefore performed, and long paean forceps were gently and blindly inserted into the cardia of the stomach. The bone foreign body was grasped with the long paean forceps under fluoroscopy and withdrawn from the oesophagus while checking with an endoscope. A gastrotomy approach using long forceps, endoscopy and fluoroscopy should be considered for removal of oesophageal foreign bodies from patients in which an endoscopic approach has been unsuccessful. |
