Abstract
JPGN Volume 69, N epends on the mater F tion. Treatment d ial ingested and can include immediate removal or expectant management. Review of Material Safety Data Sheets data is important. One area of concern is the ingestion of items containing lead, due to the uncorrectable effects of lead exposure. We present a case of ingested lead pellets in a child and review the initial evaluation and management of a retained pellet ultimately requiring single site appendectomy.
