Foreign body aspiration represents an emergency event that usually requires immediate medical intervention. In some cases this event may be misdiagnosed with few, or absence of, clinical symptoms, but it can result in serious consequences. The continuous technical improvements in minimally invasive procedures such as bronchoscopy have permitted success in foreign body removal. We present a case of aspiration of unusual foreign body (river stones) lodged in the left bronchial tree, in a patient with epilepsy, and that were removed by rigid bronchoscopy. |
