Abstract
Background: Under the term "foreign bodies" of the upper digestive tract, it is conventional to consider food impactions and foreign bodies ingested accidentally or intentionally [1]. Intentional ingestions are most often sharp or stinging foreign bodies, or even “body packing” (plastic bags, most often condoms, filled with narcotics) [2]. We’re reporting our successful experience about endoscopic extraction of a "body packing” in a young patient of 27 years old. Keywords: Endoscopic Extraction Body Packing.
