Endoscopic removal of a transgastric migrated textiloma: a case report.

The diagnosis of abdominal textiloma must be considered in front of unexplained symptoms in patients with a surgical history. Surgery has been the mainstay method for textiloma removal; however, endoscopic removal may be the best option which avoids reoperation. We report a case of an abdominal textiloma in a 38-year-old male, which migrated into the stomach and was extracted by upper endoscopy.
