摘要
Although rare, thin wire or metallic apparatus which are used for orthopedic fixation may migrate after many years. In this article, we report a 60-year-old male case of the migration of the Kirschner wires used for fixation for the clavicle fracture after 30 years into the pericardium and liver. The Kirshner wire which was detected on chest X-ray incidentally was removed surgically. As such foreign bodies may lead to serious complications, removal is required once detected.
