There is good evidence supporting an increasing incidence of Eosinophilic Oesophagitis (EO). Successful foreign body and food bolus removal may depend on the method used, the choice of device, and the experience level of the endoscopist, as well as patient factors. Aim: We aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, type of foreign body ingested and presence of underlying pathology in patients presenting to a tertiary hospital

emergency department who then proceeded to Ibrutinib endoscopy. Methods: Retrospective review of patients presenting to the Emergency Department with oesophageal foreign body impaction from 2007 to 2010 was performed. Demographic and clinical information was collected from medical records, endoscopy and laboratory database. Results: Episodes of FB ingestion (n = 101) were identified. Fifty-five percent were unintentional single presentations most commonly OFBI. Recurrent presentations occurred in 47%, of which 53% had underlying psychiatric diagnoses. Underlying pathology in this group included benign strictures in 8.5%, malignant strictures in 8.5% and EO in 27%. The

single most commonly ingested FB were knives in 26%. In the unintentional single presentations underlying pathology was found in 64.8%. Overall success rate for endoscopic removal JNK inhibitor was 58% in the intentional ingestion group, and 97% in the unintentional. Failure was due to location and type of FB and 13.9% proceeded to surgery. Conclusions: There was an increasing trend each year of FB ingestion in both groups with an increasing incidence in diagnosis of EO. While OFBI is most common there is an increasing trend in a relatively small cohort of patients with psychiatric illness to present repeatedly with FB ingestion.

Its presence implies that bleeding has ceased or has been relatively modest. It is therefore considered as low to medium risk upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) compared to frank haematamesis or melaena. There is very little data on whether presentation with CGV correlates with less severe findings at endoscopy or superior clinical outcomes. Aim: To evaluate findings at endoscopy and clinical outcomes in patients presenting with coffee ground vomiting. Methods: ICD-10 codes were used to identify all patients presenting with a primary diagnosis of UGIB requiring endoscopy at the Austin Hospital over a 36-month period from 2010 to 2012.
