Case series details surgical and anesthetic strategies for foreign body ingestion in pediatric patients, highlighting outcomes.

This research examines surgical and anesthetic management of pediatric small bowel obstruction due to foreign body ingestion.
Retrospective review of three pediatric patients with SBO from foreign body ingestion
Managed cases included laparotomy and enterotomy
Comparative analysis of clinical presentation and surgical findings
Focused on anesthetic management in patients with varying GI anatomy
All patients successfully underwent foreign body removal
Postoperative courses were uncomplicated with lengths of stay between 4-7 days
Two patients with normal anatomy had predictable impaction at the ileocecal valve
One patient with previous jejunal atresia repair showed proximal obstruction
Anesthetic management emphasized fluid resuscitation and aspiration prophylaxis leading to favorable outcomes

A 2025 study studied this question.
