Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Foreign bodies in the liver following accidental ingestion, although rare, have been described in literature. In most of the cases, adults may swallow the foreign bodies which reach the liver by penetrating stomach, colon or duodenum and the most common site being left lobe. Two teeth reaching the bronchus and the liver simultaneously, that too the second one in the right lobe of liver following endotracheal intubation is a rare event and never reported in literature, here we are presenting one such case.
