description The foreign body ingestion is a rare cause of gastrointestinal perforation in children and is typically seen with sharp foreign bodies or button batteries. Herein, we report an 11-month old male baby who presented with obstructed umbilical hernia. Abdominal radiograph showed dilated small bowel loops, while ultrasonography and CT scan suggested presence of a foreign body. Laparotomy revealed obstructed umbilical hernia with a plum seed being stuck in the terminal ileum causing intestinal perforation. Resection and anastomosis of intestine was performed.
