[Inflammatory tumor of the great omentum after ingestion of a bone fragment].

The ingestion of a foreign body is one of the most common accidents in children. It comes in extremely varied clinical presentations in which radiological imaging plays an important role in diagnosis. Colonic perforations are particularly serious because of the major risk for septic fecal peritonitis. Management depends on the nature of the ingested object, its location, the child's age and the child's clinical status. We report a child presenting an inflammatory tumor of the omentum on an ingested bone fragment that had perforated the transverse colon.
