Retained digital foreign body after a pellet gun injury.

Abstract

A symptomatic foreign body embedded in the human body can be a frustrating problem for physician and patient alike. A unique case of a retained foreign object resulting from a pellet gun injury has been presented. Although the course of treatment in this case was uncomplicated, it is important to understand the complexities of the human body's response to foreign bodies.
