Abstract

The aspiration of a foreign body represents an important cause of morbidity and mortality during childhood. Its consequences depend crucially on the degree of obstruction. Usually there is one or maximum two foreign body aspiration in a child at same time reported in literature. Here we present a rare case of multiple foreign bodies’ aspiration in one year old child with a normal radiograph of chest which was saved due prompt and emergency intervention. Foreign body aspiration must always be considered in the differential diagnoses of a child presenting with acute onset of rapid respiration and wheezing without any other obvious systemic cause.

Keywords: Multiple foreign bodies; Trachea; Bronchus; Aspiration; Bronchoscopy.
