Abstract
Ingesting foreign bodies in the GI tract is not common, especially among adults. Here, we present a case of a 38-year-old male with a hyper-dense linear foreign body perforating the distal ileum, which turned out to be a 5-cm long fish bone eaten about a month before the presenting symptoms.Entities:
