Abstract
Aspiration of foreign bodies in the trachebronchial tree may involve many substances, may present with many radiological signs, and may be associated with many pulmonary complications often requiring also bronchoscopic intervention. Endotracheal and tracheobronchial devices may be considered foreign bodies and may cause similar complications.
