Resumo: Foreign body ingestion is a common problem in Pediatrics that can be fatal.(1-3) Because the clinical presentation is unspecific, the diagnosis is usually based on the history reported by the caregivers and confirmed by radiograph.(1-3) If history is not reported, the diagnosis can be challenging, so a high index of suspicion is required. The differentiation between foreign bodies of similar size and shape is also essential to define the urgency of the approach.(1-3) A case of unwitnessed button battery ingestion is presented in this report.

É também essencial distinguir radiologicamente objetos de formato/tamanho semelhante, de modo a determinar a urgência da remoção do corpo estranho.(1-3) Este artigo relata um caso de ingestão não testemunhada de uma pilha.Unidade Local de Saúde de Santo António2023-09-14info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25753/BirthGrowthMJ.v32.i2.22591eng2183-9417Fernandes, Ana CatarinaGaspar, MarianaBandeira Duarte, MariaGavino, AlexandraLopes, Aldinainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-07T09:46:25Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/22591Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T14:39:45.106212Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
