A 19-year-old male patient presented to the emergency department (ED) with pain in the right iliac fossa. Computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen and pelvis revealed signs of acute appendicitis, as a result of a metallic foreign body beyond the appendiceal orifice. Upon further questioning, the patient gave a history of ball bearing (BB) gun bullet ingestion in the past. Although rare, foreign body appendicitis occurs. A radiologist should be mindful to reporting such cases especially bizarre foreign bodies for example bullets as it may warrant psychiatric consultation or alter surgical management.
