Foreign body injuriesmay be located in superficial and deep tissue. In addition to determiningthe correct location, correct diagnosis may be quite difficult. Superficialforeign bodies are easily removed, but the management of thosein deep tissue can be extremely difficult and therefore requiressurgical removal.The case is here presented of the novel approach of shrapnel re-moved from deep tissue with a magnet in the ED. The correct localiza-tion of the foreign bodies was determined, and the patient wassuccessfully treated with removal by magnet.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDeep TissueNovel ApproachShrapnelArticle35110.1016/j.ajem.2016.06.100Q2Q1
