Foreign body ingestion can be seen at all ages, especially in childhood. Most swallowed foreign objects are disposed from the body without any health problems through defecation. It is rare that a foreign object perforates the intestine and migrates into the liver or peritoneum. In our case two unintentionally swallowed needles pierced the intestine and were located in the left lobe of the liver and small intestine mesentery. Foreign objects were detected in the abdomen of a 20-year-old female patient during examination performed for abdominal pain that lasted for three months. After a follow up period of three weeks the patient's complaints continued. She underwent laparotomy and both needles were removed in one session. It should be kept in mind that swallowed foreign objects can sometimes perforate the gastrointestinal system and may be located in different organs in the abdomen.
