Abstract

We report the case of a 72-year-old man who accidentally
swallowed his dental bridge. He did not realize his artificial teeth
were swallowed. The patient was taken to the emergency room
with complaints of abdominal pain. At the time of initial exploration,
the patient was diagnosed with kidney colic. After a radiological
examination, a foreign object was found. The patient undergoes
laparotomy to evacuate a foreign body and find dentures. At the
time of surgery, the operator observed the sigmoid perforation.
