Abstract
A two-year-old male, a known case of bronchial asthma was admitted as a case of exacerbation of asthma. He did not improve with standard treatment and required invasive ventilator support twice during his admission. The chest x-rays only showed hyperinflation but CT scan of the thorax revealed a foreign body (a piece of Betel nut) lodged in the right main bronchus. It was removed under bronchoscopic guidance.
