ABSTRACT
Pancreatitis caused by a fish bone penetrating the posterior wall of the stomach and entering the pancreas is rare. We herein report a case involving a woman in her late 30s with an approximately 1-month history of recurrent upper abdominal pain. Initial evaluation at another hospital failed to identify the cause but raised suspicion of pancreatic cancer. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and a detailed consultation led us to suspect that the patient's pain had been caused by inadvertent ingestion of a fish bone. We used three-dimensional visualization technology to determine the location of the fish bone and informed the patient of the lesion and surgical plan through a simulated surgical demonstration. During surgery, we applied augmented reality navigation technology to remove the fish bone by a minimally invasive approach. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 3. She was followed up by telephone 24 hours after discharge. Outpatient follow-up was performed 1 week after discharge and on day 30. The patient recovered well and developed no complications. This case shows that digital medical technology can be applied in patients undergoing surgical removal of a pancreatic foreign body. Such technology assists with preoperative evaluation, patient education, and intraoperative trauma reduction.
