Popis: | The ingestion of foreign bodies is common, it may be voluntary but is usually accidental. Sharp foreign bodies and their location in the gastrointestinal tract can be dangerous. We report cases of young women wearing headscarves who accidentally ingested needles. In three cases, endoscopic removal of needles was performed successfully and in two cases, the needles passed through the gastrointestinal tract, with close radiological monitoring until their expulsion. Needle ingestion can cause gastrointestinal injury and severe complications, we recommend dropping the habit of holding needles between lips while fixing headscraf. |
