Abstract
A 71-year-old man was admitted with features of intestinal obstruction. His past surgical history included an appendicectomy as a child and three laparotomies. A CT scan of the abdomen revealed a high attenuation foreign body impacted in the distal ileum, associated with small bowel obstruction. At laparotomy, a bone was removed from the terminal ileum.Entities:
