Abstract: 
The aim of this study was to report an extremely rare case of peritonitis due to ileal perforation by poison bone.
Secondary peritonitis by traumatic ileal perforation is defined as inflammation of the peritoneal serosa following accidental opening of the wall of the ileal loop. We report a case of ileal perforation following the ingestion of the fishbone discovered intraoperatively during a left herniorrhaphy.
This rare case took place in the surgery department of the municipal hospital of ratoma
It related to a 37-year-old man admitted for left inguinal hernia, in whom we discovered an ileal perforation by fishbone during the cure of the hernia.
Fishbone peritonitis is rare and the diagnosis is made intraoperatively.
