Flexible Bronchoscopy Combined With Rigid Bronchoscopy For Treatment Of Scarring In The Bronchus Caused By A Foreign Body
CASE REPORTS IN MEDICINE(2019)
Abstract
Foreign body (FB) aspiration into the tracheobronchial tree is an emergency in the pediatric department, particularly in children aged <3 years. FB granulation tissue is commonly found in children with FB aspiration. However, scarring in the bronchus caused by a FB is rare. We herein report a case involving aspiration of a plastic whistle toy with scarring in the bronchus. The scar tissue was successfully removed by interventional bronchoscopy combined with a flexible electrosurgery probe and carbon dioxide cryotherapy.
