This paper reports the first case of the removal of an ingested fishbone from the uterus. A 77‐year‐old woman presented with a 3‐day history of lower abdominal pain. An abscess‐like lesion in the posterior wall of the uterus was revealed by transvaginal ultrasonography and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging. Moreover, a curvilinear calcium density in the anterior uterine wall was revealed by abdominal computed tomography. A recto‐sigmoidal perforation and uterine abscess were suspected. Thus, hysteroscopic drainage of the abscess was performed. Hysteroscopy revealed a fishbone partially embedded in the myometrium. Its removal resulted in full recovery. This study believed that adhesions between the uterus and rectosigmoid colon after partial gastrectomy for gastric cancer may have limited abdominal symptoms by limiting the leakage of intestinal fluids. Although rare, it should be considered that migration of a fishbone into the uterus could occur. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
