Abstract
Aspiration of foreign bodies into tracheobronchial tree is more common in children than in adults. Foreign bodies in airway commonly occur by accident, and in most cases they get removed without delay. Small foreign bodies that lodge in the peripheral airway are often asymptomatic initially and can result in respiratory symptoms several years later. Although foreign body aspiration is frequently suspected in children with acute or recurrent pulmonary symptoms, it is rarely considered in adults, unless a clear history of an aspiration event can be obtained. We have experienced and studied a case of occult aspiration of a shrimp which had been lodged for a long period.
