The management of a patient with recurrent intentional foreign body ingestion requires a team approach that incorporates endoscopic expertise and medical, surgical, and psychiatric support. Collaborative strategies across these disciplines may help prevent an issue that is costly and burdensome both for the healthcare system and, most importantly, for patients.
