A female patient, aged 62 years, unexpectedly swallowed a removable partial denture (RPD) during the supper. The doctor failed to take out the RPD from her stomach under the gastroscope during the emergency treatment at the first day. 2 days later, the PRD blocked the intestinal tract and its metal clasps penetrated the wall of the intestine near the ileocecal junction, it soon leaded to enterobrosis and diffuse peritonitis. At last, abdominal operation was conducted to take the RPD out from the intestine and enterobrosis was patched up successfully. Diffuse peritonitis was also cured by intravenous infusion of antibiotics for about 1 week.
