AbstrakBenda asing yang tertelan merupakan kegawatdaruratan di bidang telinga hidung tenggorok (THT). Tulang ikan merupakan salah satu benda asing di tenggorok yang banyak ditemukan. Abses retrofaring merupakan komplikasi yang sering terjadi akibat tersangkut benda asing ini. Foto polos leher posisi lateral perlu dilakukan untuk kecurigaan adanya lesi di daerah faring. Pasien dengan gejala menetap harus dievaluasi dengan endoskopi, walaupun pada pemeriksaan radiologi tidak tampak. Benda asing harus segera dikeluarkan untuk mencegah komplikasi lebih lanjut. Abses retrofaring diterapi dengan medikamentosa dan drainase pus. Jika terdapat benda asing harus dikeluarkan. Dilaporkan dua kasus benda asing tulang ikan di introitus esofagus. Kasus pertama pada seorang pasien laki-laki umur 42 tahun tanpa abses retrofaring dan kasus kedua pada anak laki-laki berusia 8 tahun dengan abses retrofaring. Tulang ikan terlihat pada ronsen foto leher jaringan lunak posisi lateral. Pada kedua pasien dilakukan esofagoskopi untuk mengambil tulang ikannya dan pada pasien kedua dengan abses retrofaring, absesnya sudah pecah dan pus didrainase dikombinasikan dengan pemberian antibiotik intravena.AbstractForeign body ingestion is an emergency in otorhinolaryngology. One of the most common ingested foreign body is a fish bone. Retropharyngeal abscess is well-documented complication from foreign body ingestion. The soft tissue neck radiograph lateral position is the most significant radiologic examination performed in a patient with a suspected pharyngeal lesion. In patient with persistent symptoms should be evaluated with endoscopy, although radiological examination was negative. We have to extract foreign body immediately to prevent further complication. Retropharyngeal abscess should be treated with medical and drainage of pus. If there is a foreign body must be removed. Two cases of a fish bone foreign body at esophageal introitus was reported. First case in 42 year-old male without retropharyngeal abscess and second case in 8 year-old boy with retropharyngeal abscess. Fish bones were seen from lateral neck soft tissue x-ray. Esophagoscopy were performed to removed fish bones and in the second patient, the abscess had ruptured and the pus was drainage as the treatment combined with intravenous antibiotic.

Key Words Foreign Body

Background: Patients with foreign bodies in upper digestive tract not infrequently trigger many diagnostic and treatment challenges, especially when foreign bodies translocate and are lodged outside the esophagus. Case report: We present a case of a foreign body in esophagus 56-years old woman who had developed persistent sensation of an obstacle in her throat after eating fish (Atlantic cod). She has initially dismissed her symptoms and refused medical treatment. Subsequently, a neck CT done one week later showed a 20-milimeter long fish bone in the soft tissues on the left side of her neck (between pharynx and vertebral column). Few attempts of endoscopic removal were unsuccessful. Despite antibiotic prophylaxis and due to the fish bone translocation into soft tissues of the neck and its location close to a common carotid artery and an internal jugular vein a decision was made to remove it from the external approach. The foreign body was successfully removed without any esophageal damages. Conclusions: Foreign bodies in digestive tract may result in many life-threatening complications. The fundamental management is based on the endoscopic removal of a foreign body and the antibiotic prophylaxis. In case of foreign bodies lodged in soft tissues open surgery is recommended. Key words: foreign body in the esophagus; fish bone; paraesophageal abscess ; treatment

Ingested foreign bodies are not unusual in Singapore. The most common of these objects are fish bones, which typically become lodged in the tonsils or in the base of the tongue. We report a rare case of an ingested fish bone that migrated from the upper digestive tract and into the soft tissues of the neck just below the skin.

Routine Inspection

Background: Fish bone is one of the most common foreign bodies that gets lodged in the upper digestive tract, often located in the tonsil, epiglottis, pear-shaped fossa, and esophagus, where it may be easily located on routine inspection and removed. The forcible swallowing of food such as rice balls after ingesting fish bones by mistake may lead to the migration of the fish bone from the pharynx, throat, or esophagus to the surrounding tissues. Migration most commonly occurs to the soft tissues of the neck, even to the thyroid gland, but migration to the submandibular gland has rarely been reported. Conclusions: Foreign body ingestion may cause a series of complications and endanger a patient’s life. Cases require high awareness and attentiveness on the part of the first physician to diagnose and manage the condition, and appropriate health education should be imparted to the patient.

Healing Processes

The healing processes of sutured wounds of soft tissues in most cases depend on the type and quality of the suture material. Any kind of suture material in the tissues of the body is a foreign body that causes various reactive changes from the tissues. The nature of these changes, all other things being equal, is mainly determined by the type of suture material, its thickness and the method of sterilization of the tissues on which the sutures are applied, the trauma of surgery, the infection of the wound and the irritating effect of the threads on the tissues.

Boyko V.V., Makarov V.V., Sochnieva A.L., Kritsak V.V.Residual foreign bodies in soft tissues are one of the main causes of chronical infection lesions and decrease in life quality. Surgical treatment is the most common way to relieve the patient from a foreign body. Often there is a question whether to remove a foreign body? On the one hand, all foreign bodies that are in the human body must be removed. On the other hand, in the absence of symptoms, the risk of surgery performed for the purpose of removal exceeds the risk associated with finding the foreign body. We would like to describe a practical case of removing a foreign body (Kirschner`s wires) from the left supraclavicular region. The young patient lived with a fragment of Kirschner's wire left after the osteosynthesis of the fractured clavicle for 5 years. Surgery to remove the residual foreign body was successful. On the 7th postoperative day the patient was discharged from the hospital under the supervision of surgeons at the place of residence.Key words: foreign body in soft tissue, Kirschner`s wire, surgical treatment. КЛІНІЧНИЙ ВИПАДОК ВИДАЛЕННЯ ЗАЛИШКОВ СТОРОННЬОГО ТІЛА З ЛІВОЇ НАДКЛЮЧИЧНОЇ ОБЛАСТІБойко В.В., Макаров В.В., Сочнева А.Л.,  Крицак В.В.Залишкові чужорідні тіла м'яких тканин залишаються однією з основних причин виникнення вогнища хронічної інфекції та зниження рівня якості життя. Хірургічне лікування основний спосіб позбавити хворого від наявності чужорідного агента. Часто виникає питання чи видаляти чужорідне тіло. З одного боку, усі сторонні тіла, що знаходяться в тілі людини, підлягають видаленню, з іншого боку при відсутності симптомів ризик операції, проводимої з метою видалення, перевищує ризик, пов'язаний з перебуванням чужорідного тіла. Ми хотіли б поділитися випадком видалення залишкового стороннього тіла (спиці Кіршнера) лівої надключичної ділянки із власної практики. Молода пацієнтка прожила з уламком спиці Кіршнера, залишеної після металлоостеосинтезу поламаної ключиці протягом 5 років. Операція з видалення залишкового стороннього тіла пройшла успішно. На 7 післяопераційну добу пацієнтка була виписана зі стаціонару під спостереження хірурги за місцем проживання.Ключові слова: чужорідне тіло м'яких тканин, спиця Кіршнера, хірургічне лікування. кЛИНИЧЕСКИЙ СЛУЧАЙ УДАЛЕНИЯ ОСТАТКОВ ИНОРОДНОГО ТЕЛА ИЗ ЛЕВОЙ ПОДКЛЮЧИЧНОЙ ОБЛАСТИ Бойко В.В., Макаров В.В., Сочнева А.Л.,  Крицак В.В.Остаточные инородные тела мягких тканей остаются одной из основных причин возникновения очага хронической инфекции и снижения уровня качества жизни. Хирургическое лечение основной способ избавить больного от наличия чужеродного агента. Часто возникает вопрос удалять ли инородное тело? С одной стороны, все инородные тела, находящиеся в теле человека, подлежат удалению, с другой стороны при отсутствии симптомов риск операции, производимой с целью удаления, превышает риск, связанный с нахождением инородного тела. Мы хотели бы поделится случаем удаления остаточного инородного тела (спицы Киршнера) левой надключичной области из собственной практики. Молодая пациентка прожила с обломком спицы Киршнера, оставленной после металлоостеосинтеза поломанной ключицы в течении 5 лет. Операция по удалению остаточного инородного тела прошла успешно. На 7 послеоперационные сутки пациентка была выписана из стационара под наблюдение хирурги по месту жительства.Ключевые слова: инородное тело мягких тканей, спица Киршнера, оперативное лечение.
