About this document
Infant Intestinal Obstruction from SAP Ingestion by Scivision Publishers is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Foreign body ingestion comprises one of the most common pediatric complaints in the emergency department. While most foreign bodies pass spontaneously through the gastrointestinal tract, water-retaining agents carry a higher risk of complications. We report a case of ingestion of a superabsorbent polymer ball by an 11-month-old infant who developed small bowel obstruction requiring laparotomy and resection.
