Unusual migration of a foreign body from the gut to a vertebral body.

Y Ozsunar1, E T Tali, K Kilic.   

Abstract

We report a unique case in which a needle was accidentally swallowed and migrated into the vertebral body. Plain films and CT of the spine revealed fragmented, linear, metallic-density material in the L3 vertebral body. The possible mechanisms of the migration are discussed.
