Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present two extremely rare cases of bowel perforation due to ingested foreign bodies: the first case entailed acute abdominal wall cellulitis; in the second case, the foreign body penetrated the duodenum and extended into the hepatic artery. These have not been previously reported in the literature. In both cases, we propose the possibility of laparoscopic management for such emergencies.
