A nasal foreign body was discovered radiologically on an initial dental examination of a young child. The child was a candidate for dental rehabilitation, using nasotracheal intubation under general anesthesia. The parents were unaware of the object's presence, and the child had no nasal symptoms. The child was referred to the Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Service to have the object removed; this was accomplished successfully without sequelae on an outpatient basis. Dentists and physicians who treat children should be alert to the possible presence of intranasal objects in their patients.
在对一名幼儿进行首次牙科检查时，通过放射检查发现了鼻腔异物。该患儿是牙科修复治疗的对象，需在全身麻醉下进行鼻气管插管。患儿家长并未意识到异物的存在，且患儿没有鼻部症状。该患儿被转诊至耳鼻喉头颈外科以取出异物；在门诊成功取出异物，且未留下后遗症。治疗儿童的牙医和医生应警惕患者鼻腔内可能存在异物的情况。
