ABSTRACT
A swallowed foreign body, large or small, sharp or pointed should be treated with respect. Its passage in the gastrointestinal tract should be carefully watched and monitored. The patient should be kept under regular and constant observation until such time as the foreign body has either expelled itself or is removed. We report here two cases of sharp foreign bodies ingested by children and successfully managed on conservative lines.
