A feature of the magnetic foreign bodies of the intestine is their tendency to stick together with each other, thus causing intestinal perforation, intestinal fistulas or obstruction. Sometimes serious complications can be asymptomatic which can lead to late diagnostics.</p> <p><bold>CLINICAL CASE DESCRIPTION</bold>: In the article, the authors present a case of an accidental detection of intestinal magnetic foreign bodies during X-ray examination of a 3-year-old child without any clinical symptoms in the form of a chain in the projection of the mesogastrium. Duration of these magnets’ location in the intestine is unknown; child’s condition was satisfactory. During surgery, pathological anastomoses between intestinal loops without signs of peritonitis were found. The postoperative period was uneventful, and the child was discharged in the recovering state. A median laparotomy was performed, and foreign bodies were removed from the child — round multicolored magnetic balls 0.3 cm in diameter, interlocked, in an amount of 34 pieces.</p> <p><bold>CONCLUSION</bold>: The absence of specific clinical symptoms prevented the timely diagnostics of pathologically formed interintestinal anastomoses. The presented clinical case describes a serious complication caused by multiple magnetic foreign bodies in the gastrointestinal tract in a child.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold>Обоснование</bold>. Магнитные инородные тела в желудочно-кишечном тракте у детей встречаются нередко. Их особенностью является склонность к «склеиванию» друг с другом с развитием перфорации кишечника, кишечных свищей или непроходимости. Иногда грозные осложнения могут протекать бессимптомно, что может привести к их поздней диагностике.</p> <p><bold>Описание клинического наблюдения</bold>. В данной публикации приводим пример случайного выявления на рентгенисследовании магнитных инородных тел кишечника у ребёнка 3 лет без клинических проявлений в виде цепочки в проекции мезогастрия. Давность проглатывания их неизвестна, состояние ребёнка было удовлетворительным. При оперативном лечении обнаружены патологические соустья между кишечными петлями без признаков развития перитонита. Была выполнена срединная лапаротомия, у ребенка удалены инородные тела — круглые разноцветные магнитные шарики диаметром 0,3 см, сцепленные между собой, в количестве 34 шт.</p> <p><bold>Заключение</bold>. Отсутствие специфических клинических симптомов препятствовало своевременной диагностике патологически сформированных межкишечных соустий. Клинический случай описывает серьёзное осложнение множественных магнитных инородных тел в желудочно-кишечном тракте у ребёнка. В послеоперационном периоде пациент выписан с выздоровлением.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>case report of intestinal foreign body</kwd><kwd>children</kwd><kwd>magnetic foreign bodies</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>клинический случай инородного тела кишечника</kwd><kwd>дети</kwd><kwd>магнитные инородные тела</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Razumovskiy AU, Smirnov AN, Ignatiev KO, et al.
