Abstrakt: The article presents a case study of a 32-year-old man who was taken to the emergency department due to 2-day history of foreign body sensation in the throat after drinking water from a plastic bottle. Fibre optic examination revealed the presence of a plastic ring and cap around his epiglottis. The laryngeal foreign body was removed under local anaesthesia.
