“…There were no reported post-endoscopic extraction complications in our study, also no serious complications were reported for the next 4 weeks follow-up post-ingestion, this is the indifference with Akilov et al, who reported death from aorto-enteric fistula 19 days after removal of the battery [15]. In the current study (multiple magnets ingestion groups) there were 9 patients (15%) of multiple magnets group presented with GI perforation which was statistically significant compared to the BB group (Table 4), 4 patients got entero-enteric fistula while 5 patients had Patients with multiple magnets detected by X-ray beyond the area reached by upper GI endoscopy, kept under observation with close observation of vital signs, following signs of complications, frequent X-ray and Polyethylene Glycol, if complicated with signs of perforation, fistula or other surgical complications, the patient will be transferred for surgical intervention as soon as possible.…”

BACKGROUND: Foreign body ingestions in pediatrics are present highly variably. For each case, it is important to consider the size of the child, the age of the child, the size of the object, and the inherently different risk of different objects ingested. It is important to note that regardless of the type of object, any foreign body should be removed from the esophagus. Over the past decade, the medical literature has particularly identified the potential for morbidity and mortality in cases of button battery and magnet ingestions. AIM: This study aims to describe the complications and how to avoid them in addition to studying the role of early endoscopic intervention in cases of button batteries (BB) and multiple magnets ingestion in children. METHODS: There were 151 children enrolled in the study, classified into two groups. The first group constitutes ninety children with BB, the other group sixty children with multiple magnets ingestion. In addition to one patient with both multiple magnets and battery ingestion, which are extracted endoscopically from the stomach without complication. BB detected in the upper gastrointestinal tract (GIT) in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum in 70 patients were extracted endoscopically. Other 20 patients where the batteries were detected distal to duodenum were observed till the discharge of batteries was confirmed. In patients with multiple magnets, the magnets were in the upper GIT in 46 patients while found distal to the duodenum in 14 patients. RESULTS: There were 151 children enrolled in the study, classified into two groups. The first group constitutes ninety children with BB, the other group sixty children with multiple magnets ingestion. In addition to one patient with both multiple magnets and battery ingestion, which are extracted endoscopically from the stomach without complication. BB detected in the upper GIT in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum in 70 patients were extracted endoscopically. Other 20 patients where the batteries were detected distal to duodenum were observed until the discharge of batteries was confirmed. In patients with multiple magnets, the magnets were in the upper GIT in 46 patients while found distal to the duodenum in 14 patients. CONCLUSION: This study put alarm that multiple magnets ingestion carries a high risk of gastrointestinal perforation compared to battery ingestion. Invitation to ban on the sale of products with high-powered neodymium magnets, such as Buckyballs and Buckycubes, and to keep BB difficult reachable by children. In addition to encouraging urgent endoscopic management of suspected BB or multiple magnets ingestion.

“…Due to the emergent response in treatment, the child had an uneventful recovery and was discharged on post‐operative day two. Reported incidence of battery ingestion (cylindrical and button) is nearly 10–15 cases per 1 million population with every 1 thousand episode resulting in serious repercussions 1 . The peak incidence of battery ingestion in children is within 6 months and 6 years 1,2 .…”

“…Despite their large size, cylindrical batteries easily pass through the gastrointestinal tract because of their shape and cause less mucosal injury owing to their structure [ 31 ]. The ESGE and the ESPGHAN suggest that if a single cylindrical battery in the stomach is not passed in the stool, the patient can be followed up with radiographs for 7–14 days with a weak recommendation and low quality evidence [ 2 ].…”

Foreign body (FB) ingestion is a common health problem that affects children more than adults. According to gastroenterologists’ guidelines, the management of FB ingestion differs slightly between adult and children. This review aimed to compile adult and children guidelines and establish an understandable association to reveal the requirements and timing of the endoscopic procedure, which is the most effective and least complicated technique for gastrointestinal FBs. Coins, pins, and chicken and fish bones have been the most commonly ingested FBs. However, with their increasing use in recent years, large batteries with lithium-ion conversion, stronger magnets composed of rare earth metals, such as neodymium, and superabsorbent objects have become the most morbid and mortal, necessitating new management strategies. Although the approach to gastrointestinal FBs is controversial, with different treatment options available in different disciplines, many studies have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of endoscopic procedures. Many factors influence the timing of endoscopy, including the nature, size, and location of the ingested object and the patient’s clinical condition.
