ABSTRACT
Intestinal perforation by an ingested foreign body is uncommon, and less than 1% lead to intestinal perforation. The diagnosis of fish-bone-induced intestinal perforation is difficult because of the rare history of foreign body ingestion, various clinical presentations, and the radiolucent character of fish bone. Usually, the correct diagnosis is established after an operation. We experienced a rare case of small bowel perforation induced by a fish bone accompanying an intestinal obstruction due to previous operation. Foreignbody-induced perforation is relatively rare, but it should be considered in the case of an acute abdomen.
