초록

Foreign body aspiration occurs uncommonly in adults. A review of recent reports reveals only a few case reports on this topic. We have experienced 8 cases of endobronchial foreign bodies in adults from June 1988 to February 1991 which were removed successfully with fiberoptic bronchoscope and biopsy forceps. Only one of them had the primary disorder predisposing aspiration. Foreign bodies were located in right lower lobe (3 cases), right intermediate (2 cases), left lower lobe (2 cases) and left upper lobe bronchus (1 cases). Removal of endobronchial foreign boides in adult would be accomplished by fiberoptic bronchoscopy successfully.
