Magnets remove swallowed objects
Two radiologists at North Carolina Memorial Hospital describe a ductlike potholder magnet at the end of a rubber tube as an effective tool to extract elongated foreign bodies such as bobby pins and needles from a child’s stomach under fluoroscopic guidance. The pin was removed in about two minutes, and they suggest the method could also aid removal from the windpipe or bronchi. A separate notice reports a surprise celebration for Mr and Mrs DeForest Olver with 200 guests honoring their anniversary and family.
