Abstract

The nature of inhaled foreign bodies in the respiratory tract and problems in their removal are reviewed with reference to experience in a series of 41 cases, 36 of them in children under 4 years old. Bronchoscopic removal under general anaesthesia is preferred to inhalational therapy and postural drainage.
