Tracheobronchial foreign body (TFB) aspiration is a common occurrence in children compared with adults. Long-standing cases of TFB aspiration during childhood presenting in an adult have rarely been reported. We report the unique case of an endobronchial Playmobil traffic cone that went undetected for 40 years and presented as a suspected bronchogenic carcinoma. This was subsequently removed successfully with flexible bronchoscopy. To our knowledge this is the first case of a TFB that was overlooked this length of time.
与成人相比,气管支气管异物(TFB)吸入在儿童中更为常见。儿童期长期存在的TFB吸入病例在成人期出现的情况鲜有报道。我们报告了一例独特的病例,一个支气管内的Playmobil交通锥异物40年来未被发现,表现为疑似支气管源性癌。随后通过柔性支气管镜成功取出。据我们所知,这是第一例被忽视如此长时间的TFB病例。
