Yabancı cisim yutulması çocukluk çağında sık görülen bir durumdur. Yabancı cisim yutmaları için tanımlanan hasta izlem uygulamaları cismin radyoopak olması üzerine kurulmuştur. Kürdan gibi radyolüsen olan batıcı nitelikteki yabancı cisim yutmalarında ise yüksek oranda komplikasyon görülmektedir. Kürdan yutmaya bağlı sigmoid kolon perforasyonu olgumuzda primer onarım ile tedavi edilmiştir. Bu tür yabancı cisimleri yutan olguların yakından izlenmeleri, şüphelenilen durumlarda ultrasonografi tetkiki ile yabancı cismin araştırılması uygundur.
