    A 16-year-old male presented after ingestion of twelve spherical magnets visualized in hypogastrium on X-ray, not found in colonoscopy with ileoscopy.

    Retrograde motorized spiral enteroscopy (MSE) was performed, exploring 90cm of ileum without identifying the magnets. An X-ray confirmed their persistence. With an anterograde MSE we found in medial ileum a nine-magnet rosary and extracted it using a Roth net. We carried out another anterograde MSE and two more magnets were removed. The last magnet was not found.

    MSE allows the extraction of foreign bodies in a less aggressive and safer way, avoiding surgery.
