Abstract
Foreign body aspiration (FBA) in children represents a significant morbidity and even mortality producing sudden deaths. Regarded as a major public health issue, FBA may be the end result of aspiration of various organic and inorganic materials. Parental and public awareness including preventive measures is important in avoiding these injuries. The consequences of FBA may pose great challenge for both the children, their families together with clinicians dealing with these children. In this review article it is aimed to discuss the epidemiology, clinical presentations, diagnosis and treatment modalities of FBA in children under the light of relevant literature.
