摘要
Foreign bodies in the laryngopharynx can occur without discrimination of age or sex. Their occurrence is influenced by mode of living, customs, habits and environment. T.M. Paramciwaran(1977) reported 56 cases of foreign bodies of tracheobronchial tree in the span of 5 years. A.S.A. Abdel-Salam and Alan G. Gibb (1980) mentioned that the vast majority of cases occur in young children. They have reported that undiagnosed foreign bodies cause mechanical effects, chemical reactions and may present as chronic pulmonary infection, allergic asthma, bronchiectasis, lung collapse or lung abscess. They present as emergencies and require skilful management.
