Ingestion of magnetic toys is associated with serious complications that can result in pressure necrosis and bowel perforation. We report three cases of multiple (more than two) magnet ingestion. In two patients, the symptoms did not resolve and complications of perforation and jejunocolic fistula occurred. The third patient, however, had early intervention with no resultant complication. The literature is reviewed and close observation and early surgical intervention is recommended.
