Abstract

Foreign body aspiration in childhood is a common and life-threatening emergency. A 14-year-old male with history of mental retardation was transferred from another center to our hospital with diagnosis of foreign body aspiration. According to the anamnesis, he had been diagnosed with epilepsy a few years ago. Approximately 10 hours before admission, while at home, his parents had urgently placed a wooden spoon in the boy’s mouth during a generalized tonic-clonic seizure to avoid possible airway injury. Nevertheless, he had inhaled a large piece of the wood after breaking the handle of the spoon with his teeth. Rigid bronchoscopic evaluation revealed the presence of a large piece of wood sitting vertically 2 cm beyond the glottis. Although bronchoscopic removal of the wooden piece from the trachea was difficult and prolonged, it was successful. Following this process, he presented with subcutaneous emphysema and pneumothorax in the intensive care unit (ICU). After improvement with the aid of chest tube drainage in the ICU, he was discharged from the hospital on the 3rd day of rigid bronchoscopy. Early diagnosis and urgent removal of a foreign body are very important for reducing mortality. However, complications related to the foreign body itself or the bronchoscopy may occur. In conclusion, the physical characteristics, position and location of the foreign body can influence the outcome, even in skilled hands.

Özet

Yabancı cisim aspirasyonu çocukluk döneminde yaygın ve hayatı tehdit eden acil bir durumdur. Mental retardasyon öyküsü olan, 14 yaşında erkek hasta, yabancı cisim aspirasyonu tanısıyla başka bir merkezden hastanemize nakledildi. Öyküsünden birkaç yıldır epilepsisi olduğu öğrenildi. Yaklaşık 10 saat önce, evde, jeneralize tonik-klonik kasılmalar sırasında, olası bir havayolu yaralanmasını önlemek amacıyla ailesi ağzına acilen tahta kaşık yerleştirmiş. Ancak hasta dişleriyle kaşığın sapını kırarak, aniden büyük bir tahta parçasını aspire etmişti. Rijit bronkoskopla yapılan değerlendirme, glottisin 2 cm ilerisinde, dikey olarak yerleşmiş, büyük bir tahta parçasının varlığını gösterdi. Bu büyük tahta kaşık parçasının trakeadan bronkoskopla çıkarılması uzun ve zor olsa da başarılı oldu. Ancak bu girişimi takiben, yoğun bakım ünitesinde hastada subkutan amfizem ve pnömotoraks olduğu görüldü. Yoğun bakım ünitesinde yerleştirilen toraks tüpü ile genel durumu düzelen hasta, rijit bronkoskopiden üç gün sonra taburcu edildi. Erken tanı ve yabancı cismin acilen çıkarılması mortaliteyi önemli ölçüde azaltmaktadır. Ancak yabancı cisme veya bronkoskopiye ait komplikasyonlar gelişebilir. Sonuç olarak, yabancı cismin fiziksel özellikleri, pozisyonu ve yerleşim yeri, tecrübeli ellerde bile, sonucu etkileyebilir.
