Jargon survey
edit- esophageal foreign body impaction
- at the end of the scope or at the end of orogastric tubes
- (In this case, you could check whether there is an appropriate article to link to, or create a stub.)
- Consider rewording this. Foreign bodies are not usually left in there anyway, are they?
- Foreign bodies should not remain in the esophagus for greater than 24 hours because of a high risk of complication.

- Reworded and explained. Many thanks for the survey -- Samir धर्म 22:36, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
Nice pictures
editThe pictures are awesome. The article could use a little cosmetic care and buffing but looks pretty good overall. Do you think it's worth including something on removal of rectal foreign bodies? MastCell 05:05, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
- Was on my to-do list for some time; there's far less evidence for colonoscopic retrieval though -- Samir धर्म 11:10, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Not GA
editI think this article is a little limited in scope to be GA
- no section on the history of this technique
- no section on how commonly it is performed
- images of the equipment would be nice
- complications of this technique
- discuss what should be done before this is attempted and what can be tried if this does not work.
