| 5 | A body-packer with a cocaine bag stuck in the stomach显示文摘Management of patients carrying packets of drugs in the digestive tract is a frequent medical problem.Wereport on a patient who was referred by the police after ingestion of packets of cocaine.After spontaneous elimination of 81 drug packets,the patient had three unremarkable stools.A plain abdominal X-ray disclosed no residual packet but computed tomography(CT) scan showed one in the stomach.As this was not eliminated during the 10 d following ingestion,it was removed through gastrotomy.This case stresses the usefulness of the CT scan to ensure that no residual packet is present before hospital discharge. | Yan Beauverd Pierre-Alexandre Poletti Hans Wolff Frédéric Ris Jean-Marc Dumonceau Bernice S Elger | 2011 | World Journal of Radiology2011，3，6： | 0 |
