Abstract

Tracheobronchial foreign body aspiration in adults is rare when compared to children. In this case report, 76 years old female patient who aspirated a screw of tracheostomy canula which was taken out by fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) was presented. This case showed us that education of patients about stoma care is important. The FOB can be used safely to get foreign body from distal airways.

Özet

Trakeobronşiyal yabancı cisim aspirasyonları erişkinlerde çocuklara göre daha nadir görülür. Bu olgu sunumunda, trakeotomi kanülünün vidasını aspire eden ve yabancı cismin fiberoptik bronkoskopi (FOB) ile çıkarıldığı 76 yaşındaki bir kadın hasta sunulmuştur. Bu olgu bize, trakeotomili hastaların stoma bakımı konusunda iyi eğitilmelerinin gerektiğini göstermiştir. Distal hava yollarına aspire edilen yabancı cisimlerin çıkarılmasında FOB güvenle uygulanabilir.
