| description | Retained surgical sponge is not uncommon yet an underreported event. Spontaneous transmural migration into
hollow viscera is further rare but reported occurrence. We
present a case of 49-year-old male who apparently had
undergone exploratory laparotomy and splenectomy for
trauma 4 years back, presented to Emergency Department
with features of small intestinal obstruction. On exploration
laparotomy a bezoar-like intraluminal foreign body impacted
at 20cm from ileocaecal junction which on per enterotomy
retrieval was a surgical sponge. |
