摘要：

Background: Tracheostomy is widely used for securing the airway; however, complications do occur. One such rare complication is a fracture of the tracheostomy tube which presents as a foreign body of the tracheobronchial tree. Case presentation: We report a case of a 7-year-old child who presented with mild respiratory distress following fracture and migration of non-metallic tracheostomy tube in the airway. Successful removal was done via rigid bronchoscopy under general anaesthesia. Conclusion: Careful inspection of the tracheostomy tube before placing and appropriate tracheostomy care is the cornerstone to prevent such rare complications associated with a tracheostomy.
