Foreign body aspiration (FBA) into the lower airway requires a high index of suspicion. Identification of the problem can be difficult as it has a broad range of clinical presentation and often mimics other medical conditions. A delay in diagnosis and management can result in serious complications. The authors report the case of a middle aged man with bilateral airway FBA who had a history of six hospitalisations over the previous 10 years with recurrent pneumonias.
下呼吸道异物吸入(FBA)需要高度的怀疑指数。由于其临床表现范围广泛且常与其他疾病相似,识别该问题可能很困难。诊断和治疗的延迟可能导致严重并发症。作者报告了一例双侧气道FBA的中年男性病例,该患者在过去10年中有6次因反复肺炎住院的病史。
