We describe a child with foreign body aspiration whose chest radiograph showed an unusual appearance of multiple round lucencies simulating bronchiectasis. This appearance is contrary to the usual appearance of emphysema due to the check-valve type of obstruction. This report is particularly useful for pediatricians and family physicians, who should be aware of the variable appearances of foreign body aspiration. Our case emphasizes the necessity of early bronchoscopy in pediatric patients with unresolving pneumonia.
我们描述了一名有异物吸入的儿童，其胸部X光片显示出多个圆形透亮区的异常表现，类似支气管扩张。由于单向活瓣型梗阻，这种表现与肺气肿的常见表现相反。本报告对儿科医生和家庭医生特别有用，他们应该了解异物吸入的多种表现。我们的病例强调了对患有迁延不愈肺炎的儿科患者进行早期支气管镜检查的必要性。
