AB Failure  to  diagnose  the  presence  of  a  foreign  body  has  emerged  as  a  common  cause  of  malpractice  actions  against  general  practitioners.  It  is  particularly  important  to  locate  and  remove  foreign  bodies,  especially  splinters  in  children,  glass  slivers  after  motor  vehicle  accidents  and  pub  brawls  and  metal  objects  such  as  needles  in  the  feet  of  children.
