RESUMO
A 12-year-old boy with Lennox syndrome presented with an acute abdomen and a history of progressive abdominal pain and vomiting over 3 weeks. The uncommon finding in this case was a foreign body detected in a lower loop of the jejunum causing radiological and clinical signs of jejunitis/ileitis. The foreign body had to be removed surgically and turned out to be a hard (originally soft) plastic part of a towel rack.
