Abstract
Aerodigestive foreign bodies (FBs) aspiration is a common problem in children; however, simultaneous aerodigestive localisation is rare. Ingestion of multiple magnetic FBs can lead to serious complications, especially tracheo-oesophageal fistula and recurrent chest infections. These depend on the duration of foreign-body ingestion/aspiration, prompt intervention and adequate technique for foreign-body retrieval. A 1.8-year-old female child was found to have two magnetic FBs lodged simultaneously in the oesophagus and trachea. The magnetic FBs in the aerodigestive tract in children were removed in the same session using flexible endoscopes.
