摘要
Foreign bodies’ingestion is a common phenomenon,and most of the ingested foreign bodies pass through the gut uneventfully.In clinical practice,less than 1%of these patients develop complications such as gut wall penetration or perforation[1–3].We present a rare complication of hepatic abscess secondary to the toothpick piercing the gastric wall into the liver.The abscess was successfully treated by endoscopic retrieval of the foreign body and empirical antibiotic therapy,without drainage or laparotomy.
