A 3‐year‐old boy with rapid obstructive symptoms secondary to coin ingestion and gastric impaction

Foreign body ingestion is a common problem in children; blunt objects occur most frequently, and coins are the most common culprit.

description Foreign body ingestion is a common problem in children; blunt objects occur most frequently, and coins are the most common culprit. Rarely does coin ingestion lead to serious consequences other than esophageal impaction. In this report, we present the case of a healthy 3‐year‐old boy who developed rapid obstructive symptoms after the ingestion of a coin that required endoscopic retrieval from the stomach. Obstruction attributed to an ingested coin once post‐esophageal is a rare complication of a relatively common presenting complaint.
