Abstract

Foreign body in the gastrointestinal tract is a common cause of emergency hospitalization in many patients.Most gastrointestinal foreign bodies can be eliminated naturally from the body. In some cases, foreign bodies migrate to other organs, causing many dangerous complications and need to be removed from the body timely. In this article, we present a case of a 64-year-old man who was diagnosed with a hepatic abscess secondary to a migrated fish bone. The fishbone was successfully removed by image-guided Percutaneous Transhepatic Removal (IPTR) approach and then the patient received antibiotics for the abscess. This method is simple, minimal invasive, feasible alternative to surgical removal, particularly if the patient is considered to be at high surgical risk.
