We report a case of successful retrieval of the capsule using laparoscopic surgery.

Foreign body ingestion is a common pediatric emergency, and plastic objects are particularly difficult to detect on imaging due to their radiolucency. This can lead to delayed diagnosis and serious complications, especially when the ingestion is unwitnessed or the child is asymptomatic. We report a case of a four years and five months old girl who claimed to have accidentally swallowed a 4.
