AbstractForeign body aspiration is a very common problem in children and toddlers and still a serious and sometimes fatal condition. We are reporting on a 2-year-old white asthmatic male who choked on a chick pea and presented with subcutaneous emphysema, and on chest X-ray with an isolated pneumomediastinum but not pneumothorax. On review of the literature an isolated pneumomediastinum without pneumothorax was rarely reported. This presented a challenge in management mainly because of the technique that we had to use in order to undergo bronchoscopy and removal of the foreign body. Apnoeic diffusion oxygenation was used initially while the foreign body was removed piecemeal, and afterwards intermittent positive pressure ventilation was used. The child did very well, and his subcutaneous emphysema and pneumomediastinum remarkably improved immediately post surgery.

Delay In Diagnosis

Foreign body aspiration (FBA) is common in children. Especially in children, the majority of accidental deaths occur due to FBA. Morbidity and mortality rates increase, especially in children between the ages of one and four, and as a result of delay in diagnosis. The most common symptoms in patients with FBA are cough, dyspnea, hemoptysis, stridor and wheezing. In this case report, a patient who presented with sudden respiratory distress in the Pediatric Emergency Department was presented and the importance of anamnesis and respiratory examination in the diagnosis of FBA was emphasized.

<p class="abstract">Foreign body aspiration is a life-threatening condition that requires immediate attention and intervention. Foreign body aspiration in adults usually occurs during dental procedure or motor vehicle trauma. Classical symptoms include choking, cough, haemoptysis, hoarseness or stridor. This case report presents an incident of a foreign body lodged at the subglottic region in an adult wearing dental prosthesis; the main complaint was hoarseness post motor vehicle accident. High index of suspicion coupled with correct investigation will facilitate the diagnosis of a foreign body in the airway thus immediate intervention can be taken to prevent morbidity and mortality.</p>
