Patients with implanted subcutaneous foreign bodies (FB) are a common presentation to Plastic Surgery services. This implantation may be accidental, or as part of self-embedding behaviour. Removal of FB poses multiple risks including the usual risks of an operation, which may include a general anaesthetic and a tourniquet. In addition, there are risks posed by removal of FB in particular. They are often sharp, posing a needlestick risk to the surgeon. They are usually small, making identification potentially difficult, lengthy and occasionally unsuccessful.
