Core Tip
Core Tip: We report two cases of digestive tract foreign body perforation, with one foreign body located in the liver and the other foreign body located around the anus, both of which were misdiagnosed by magnetic resonance examination. We hope that through our report, there will be more diagnostic ideas for similar problems in clinics in the future.
