Abstract
Impaction of foreign bodies is a common emergency in the field of gastroenterology. The jujube pits impaction can usually be seen in real-clinic. The most common impaction location of jujube pits was the esophagus, prepyloric region, and duodenum. Here we reported a 60-year-old female complaint of lower abdominal pain with jujube pit impaction. By double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE), the jujube pit was found in the small intestine, located at the middle jejunum. The jujube pit, sized 1.0*3.0 cm, was retrieved by a grasping forceps, and a retrieving net.
