Please Don't Eat the Rocks






Bottom photo: 2 rocks visible in the small intestine. The angular one was blocking the small intestine. A 3rd. rock is in the stomach to the left of the other two, not as easily seen because it is partially whited out by the stomach. The rocks were successfully removed surgically through 2 incisions in the small intestine (enterotomy) and 1 in the stomach (gastrotomy).
