The Study: “Multiple magnet ingestion alert,”
Radiology, Nov. 2004

The Findings: In fall 2004, after conducting a clinical review
of multiple magnet ingestion, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital radiologist Alan
Oestreich was himself presented with a rare case. An abdominal x-ray of a
12-year-old patient who complained of bellyache and fever revealed a number of
small, dense objects lodged in his bowels. They were magnets, and the surgeons
who removed them said they had aligned in formation through opposing walls of
tissue, bounded off loops of guts, and caused swelling, necrosis and
perforation. After witnessing the dangers firsthand, Oestreich wrote an urgent,
all-doctor alert to the journal Radiology.

Why Bother? Eating metal intuitively sounds like a bad idea,
but 80 percent of swallowed foreign objects pass right through you. Magnets,
however, pose a serious danger. “Urgent surgical consideration is required,”
Oestreich wrote
