KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Migration of any foreign body can cause potentially life threatening complications and should be reviewed by a multidisciplinary approach for the management. Diagnosis can be challenging; a history of foreign body injury could be suspicious.
ABSTRACT: Foreign body injury to the chest wall can be an emergency situation and require a multidisciplinary approach for the management of the condition. Migration of the foreign body, though rare, can lead to potentially life threatening complications and require a multidisciplinary approach for the localization of the foreign body and subsequent management of the condition. A 50-year-old male presented to the emergency department with the complaint of left sided chest pain. Upon examination, the patient was found to have a penetrating injury 6 years back by a sharp object. Radiological investigations helped in the localization of the migrating foreign body, which was removed with effective surgical intervention. The postoperative chest x-ray was normal, the patient was asymptomatic and thus the patient was discharged on the same day following surgery.
