nose and throat specialist<\/a> at Octavio de la Concepci\u00f3n de la Pedraja Paediatric Hospital in Holgu\u00edn, Cuba, discovered the spring had lodged itself in the boy&#8217;s esophagus.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Salermo Reyes, along with Dr. Pablo Medina, Dr. Mavil Ben\u00edtez and Dr. Alberto Igarza then formulated a plan to remove the spring via surgery on May 9, the same source reported.<\/p>\n<p>The exploratory esophagoscopy involved a 22-cm rigid endoscope, said Jam Press.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We observed <a

there was significant concern the sharp points of the spring could perforate the toddler&#8217;s esophagus.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;However, the operation was considered a success and the young lad is
