The ingestion of foreign bodies is an emergency and one of the accidents with the highest morbidity and mortality in pediatrics. Due to their characteristics and location, some represent a challenge for endoscopic extraction, so it is important to have various accessories and technical skills to achieve extraction. The objective of this article is to present a series of cases of ingestion of difficult-to-extract foreign bodies that required unconventional techniques and that could serve as a guide for the treatment of similar cases.
