AB  - All  foreign  bodies  can  become  a  nidus  for  infection;  reasonable  attempts  should  be  made  to  remove  them.  Radiographic  evaluation  or  ultrasound  (see  related  item  and  chapter)  may  assist  in  locating  foreign  bodies  not  directly  visualized.  Foreign  bodies  are  characterized  as  being  either  reactive  (eg,  organic  materials  such  as  wood,  bone,  and  soil)  or  nonreactive  (eg,  glass  and  metal).
