This article describes different complications which occur due to injury of body tissues with foreign objects and/or their migration through the animal's body in farm animals. The Study was performed on 16 farm animals of different species (eight equines and eight ruminants). The case history and the clinical signs were recorded for each case; radiography was used to confirm the diagnosis in 10 cases. The most common forms of complications recorded to occur due to the injury with foreign objects and their migration through the body tissues were: recurrent abscesses, fistulae, hard to heal wounds and recurrent lameness. Surgical management was based mainly on thorough exploration of the site of lesion with widening and finger palpation of the site of lesion. Determination of the site and type of the foreign object was easy determined with the use of radiographic examination. In conclusion foreign objects should be suspected to be the real cause in any case of recurrent abscesses, fistulae, or hard to heal wounds or in cases of recurrent lameness. Removal of these materials is important to allow complete recovery of the lesion.
