Fish thorn stuck in the throat swallowed the meal to swallow?
Don't !!!
One woman suffered from this action:
Fish spines puncture the intestines in the body and enter the blood vessels to swim away
It ends up hiding in the artery of the posterior knee fossa (popliteal fossa).
Surgery is performed
The stasis and swelling of the popliteal fossa of the elderly are obvious.
Woman with unexplained fever abdominal pain swelling of the lower limbs
Treatment did not improve for many days
The old man's surname is Li, and his family lives in rural Huanggang. Last month, the elderly went to the local hospital for unexplained fever, anorexia, abdominal pain, and fatigue. During the hospitalization, the examination found that the elderly were anemic for unknown reasons, and after anti-inflammatory, blood transfusion and other treatments, the symptoms of fever, fatigue, abdominal pain and other symptoms of the elderly had improved.
But a new symptom appeared: sudden pain in the right popliteal fossa, and the swelling worsened. Magnetic resonance results show that there are cords in the right popliteal artery that remain and form arterial dissection, the surrounding tissues are disordered, and the edema is obvious.
The old man was then transferred to Wuhan Bauhinia Hospital. On the night of admission, the elderly suddenly suffered severe pain in the right lower limb, foot end ischemia, and was diagnosed with right lower limb compartment syndrome and rupture of the popliteal artery. Zhang Jie, director of the Department of Hand and Foot Microsurgery, decided to perform emergency incision decompression and vascular exploration surgery.

A 4 cm long fish spine is removed from the popliteal artery
During the operation, the patient was found to have high pressure in the compartment, dissection and rupture of the popliteal artery, and old bruising of the surrounding tissues. After the fascia decompression, the popliteal artery was found to be damaged by about 8 cm, and the large saphenous vein was transplanted during the operation to repair the damaged popliteal artery.
A broken fish spine taken from the popliteal artery of the elderly.
After the operation, Director Zhang Jie found a fish spine about 4 cm long from the cut popliteal artery segment, which had been broken into three sections.
Director Zhang Jie learned after questioning the old man that when the old man ate fish at home before the onset of illness, he was stuck in the throat by the fish thorn, and after swallowing a large mouthful of rice, he felt as if the fish bone was "gone".
Director Zhang Jie analyzed that after Grandma Li forcibly swallowed the fish thorn by mistake, the fish thorn entered the gastrointestinal tract, pierced the intestine in the curved stenosis and entered the abdominal aorta, and then moved from the abdominal aorta to the common iliac artery, and finally slipped down the popliteal artery.
He reminded that the fish should stop eating immediately, go to the hospital immediately, and let the doctor take it out with the help of a tool. Blindly swallowing rice will only cause the fish to prick deeper and deeper, making the situation worse.
