Abstract
Ingested foreign bodies usually pass through the digestive system uneventfully. The diagaosis of inadvertently swallowed foreign bodies is usually delayed. It often induces serious complications, such as perforation, enterocolic fistula, abscess formation, or aortointestinal fistula. Therapeutic colonoscopy has replaced to a significant degree the need for traditional open surgical procedures to extract foreign bodies from the colon, Various foreign bodies may be extracted from the colon by a number of endoscopic techniques. We describe a case of a patient who presented with abdominal pain, loose stool during 3 months due to the impaction of a chicken bone in the sigmoid colon, The chicken bone was successfully removed by using balloon dilatation during colonoscopy.
