case_images: (a) Contrast upper gastrointestinal radiography: a radiopaque spherical image with a diameter of 3-4 cm in correspondence with the first jejunal loop (arrow), about 3 cm from the Treitz. (b) Endoscopy view: a large water bead obstructing the third portion of the duodenum.

case_images: Contrast upper gastrointestinal radiography was done and showed in correspondence of the first jejunal loop, about 3 cm from the Treitz, a radiopaque spherical image with a diameter of 3-4 cm (shown in Fig. 1). After multidisciplinary discussion, she was transferred to our clinic and we performed an endoscopy with the removal of the ball sited in duodenum after crushing it (shown in Fig. 1).

case_images: (a) Ultrasonography: jejunoileal loops show distension up to 25 mm containing round anechoic ball formation. (b) After enterotomy, the intraluminal foreign bodies were pushed to the most distal sphere.

case_images: Ultrasound revealed distension of the jejunoileal loops up to 25 mm containing multiple round anechoic formations (shown in Fig. 2). After that, the intraluminal foreign bodies were pushed up to the most distal sphere, which was larger probably because it was ingested first (shown in Fig. 2).
