The serosal detail is within normal limits. There are 4 nerf bullets in the GI tract. 2 of them are in the colon. 2 of them are in the small intestines. Only the rubbery part of the bullet is present, and only one is complete, otherwise only the very tip of the bullet is present. There is moderate dilation of the stomach with gas and fluid. The small intestines are fluid filled primarily with mild gas dilation. The remainder of the abdomen is otherwise unremarkable.
