The world is so big that it is full of wonders. Recently, a 14-year-old student, out of curiosity, inserted a solid “copper bar” 12 cm long into the anus, and then went to the doctor with unbearable abdominal pain.
It can be clearly seen from this CT image that there is a “large” bar obliquely inserted into the intestinal tract of the abdominal cavity, which is unexpected What’s more, it turned out to be a dangerous behavior made by a 14-year-old student driven by curiosity!
Huang Wenfeng, deputy director of the Department of Gastroenterology of the First People’s Hospital of the City: The patient had a huge foreign body in his abdomen. During the questioning, the patient told us that he was in the hospital the day before. A huge metal foreign body is stuffed into the anus. We took the foreign body out of the anus through the special device of the endoscope, and found that the foreign body was very large, about 12 cm long, it was a solid copper column, and there were sharp edges and corners on its side. Such foreign bodies are relatively rare.
Because of the sharp edges and corners of the foreign body in the body, the patient’s intestine had obvious ulcers when it was taken out. If the disease is delayed, the consequences will be disastrous.
Huang Wenfeng, deputy director of the Department of Gastroenterology, First People’s Hospital of the City: If the foreign body is not treated in time, it is likely to cause damage to the intestinal mucosa, resulting in Intestinal bleeding can even lead to perforation of the gastrointestinal tract, which can lead to abdominal infection and even death in severe cases.
