[ENT emergencies due to foreign bodies at a tertiary hospital].

A study of the patients who, through a year, came to the Emergencies Department showing foreign bodies in ENT-area has been accomplished. Among ENT urgencies foreign bodies constitute the most frequent cases. Age, sex, date, time of admission, sitting, kind of body and treatment are taken in consideration. The intruders were most commonly found in the pharyngeal area. A striking correspondence between age and location is underlined.
