Medical devices in the abdomen and pelvis are important to be recognized, just like medical devices of the chest. Often we ignore these devices, considering them to be incidental and non-pathological, however it is essential to be aware of potential complications.
Gastrointestinal tubes
- stomach tubes: nasogastric / Ryle tube, feeding tube.
- intestinal tubes: nasojejunal feeding tube, Millor-Abbot tube (not used now), enteroclysis tube, gel pump tube (Parkinson), manometry tube, duodenal-jejunal bypass sleeve device (EndoBarrier)
- gastrostomy tube, gastrostomy button, Malecot tube
- jejunostomy tube
- gastric lap band
- gastric balloon
Genitourinary devices

Miscellaneous
- foreign bodies
- medications ingested by the patient - potassium chloride, antacids (e.g. Pepto-Bismol, magnesium salts), iron tablets, vitamin pills, barium and iodinated contrasts
- residual medication injected into soft tissues e.g. bismuth (historically used for syphilis) in the buttocks
- calcified injection sites in the soft tissue, most commonly buttocks in diabetics
- radiopaque markers, as used in a shapes/colon transit study for evaluation of patients with chronic constipation (e.g. Sitz markers)
- capsule endoscopy devices
- patient restraint devices
- colostomy bags
