Abstract
Sporadically cases are reported about broken Tracheostomy tube as foreign-body in the tracheo-bronchial tree. The latest is from DR. S. C. Gupta (Journal of laryngology and otology, August 1987). Accordingly only twenty one have been reported. He reported nine cases over a period of eight years from Allahabad. We share our experience and views about the three cases of broken Fuller’s metallic Tracheostomy tubes as foreign-body removed from the nasophanynx and tracheo-bronchial tree (including a migratory type) within a period of one month (Apr. 1988) in the Institute of Oto-rhino-Iaryngology, Madras.
