Abstract
|
|
|
Foreign body ingestion is commonly encountered by otolaryngologists. Most foreign bodiesin the upper airway can be easily removed via direct endoscopy; however, if they penetrate thesoft tissue deeply, both localization and retrieval may be challenging. Here, we report on thesuccessful removal of multiple sewing needles from the throat using intraoperative, real-timeC-arm fluoroscopy to guide endoscopic extraction. The use of intraoperative, real time C-armfluoroscopy to guide endoscopic extraction allowed quick, safe treatment and avoided any developmentof complications in our patient.
