Abstract
- Key Clinical Message: Clinicians should not only consider the presence of metallic foreign bodies within the digestive tract but also contemplate the possibility of nicotine poisoning during the diagnostic process. When clinicians encounter cases of accidental ingestion of some types of heated tobacco, they must consider not only nicotine poisoning but also the possibility of a metallic foreign body within the digestive tract during diagnosis. In children, even sharp or relatively large ingested foreign bodies can spontaneously pass below the esophagus. Considering that this 12‐mm metal piece is small, natural excretion may be considered rather than endoscopic removal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
