Objective: To report a case of fractured tracheotomy tube ingestion in a pediatric patient, discussing the clinical presentation, complications and management of tracheobronchial tree versus upper digestive tract foreign bodies.   Method:             Design:   Case Report             Setting:   Tertiary Private Hospital                 Subject:   One   Results: A 4-year-old male child with unusual hypersensitivity to routine tracheotomy suctioning was discovered to have a fractured tracheotomy tube. Emergency radiographs localized the cannula in the abdomen and bronchoscopy was deferred. The foreign body was eventually passed out after 4 days   Conclusion:  Due diligence in diagnostics prior to bronchoscopy led to the avoidance of an unnecessary and sometimes complicated procedure. In developing countries with poor access to health care, the importance of regular tracheotomy follow-ups and periodic replacement cannot be overemphasized. A search of the English literature using Pubmed and Ovid search engines with keywords tracheostomy, foreign bodies, and pediatrics confirms that this is the first reported accidental ingestion of a fractured tracheotomy tube in a pediatric patient   Keywords: Tracheostomy, Complications, Foreign bodies, Pediatrics

ABSTRACT Missed foreign bodies are one of the leading causes of malpractice claims made against emergency physicians. Foreign bodies in the lip are not common. Here, a case of a child presenting with tooth fragment embedded in the lower lip after a fall is being reported. Accurate diagnosis was made by palpation and radiographic evaluation. The foreign body was removed surgically under local anesthesia with prompt recovery and esthetics was preserved. The patient was taken up for root canal treatment. It is essential to look for foreign bodies embedded in soft tissue particularly in children after a fall, which if overlooked can have significant complications.

Deep neck infections are mortal diseases that need emergency treatment. It can occur at any age but usually in pediatric ages. In this report, a left cervical carotid space abscess of a pediatric patient was discussed. It was interesting that the only origin of the left carotid sheath abscess was right inferior first molar tooth decay. Right neck spaces were all clean. Patient had no immunosupression and also there were no congenital masses such as branchial cleft cysts, foreign bodies, or masses suspicious for malignancies in cervical ultrasound and MRI. We discussed this rare condition under the light of the literature.

Bullet Injury

All manner of foreign bodies have been extracted from the bladder. Introduction into the bladder may be through self-insertion, iatrogenic means or migration from adjacent organs. Extraction should be tailored according to the nature of the foreign body and should minimise bladder and urethral trauma. We report a case of a bullet injury to the bladder, which finally presented as a gross hematuria after remaining asymptomatic for four years. We present here an alternative to suprapubic cystostomy with a large bladder foreign body treated via a combined transurethral unroofing followed by removal using a grasper passed through a suprapubic laparoscopic port.
