"There are many ways in which a foreign body can be introduced into various parts of the human body."
"Sharp ingested foreign bodies can be potentially problematic when lodged in the oesophagus; patients will often require emergency endoscopy; more often than not, if the sharp object is within reach of endoscopy, it will be removed before it progresses further 12.Plastic bread clips are diagnostically challenging. The limited literature on this foreign body suggests they are invisible on both plain radiography and CT. The rigid shape can cause bowel perforations or gastrointestinal haemorrhage 15,16."

"The anatomical location will affect the radiopacity of the suspected foreign body and the magnification rate as the object is placed further or closer to the detector; lateral cervical radiographs can have a magnification rate of up to 21.6% 9-11."
"Drug packing is a well-documented form of foreign body. Often drugs are placed within condoms, or wrapped in foil, latex or cellophane, then swallowed or inserted anally or vaginally. These should be considered hazardous to the patient until evacuated due to the possibility of the containment method rupturing."
