A Retrospective Study of ENT Foreign Bodies in 50 patients at a Tertiary Care Hospital in Navi Mumbai

Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 12

Abstract

Ear, nose and throat (ENT) foreign bodies (FBs) are common occurrences, particularly among children. The proper recognition, study, and management of FBs are required to prevent complications. Their consequences are greatly variable, from mild disturbances that may not require hospitalization up to lifethreatening complications. In this study, we share our experience in dealing with fifty cases of various types of ENT foreign bodies in the age-groups of 2-60 years. We also analyse the clinical profile of these fifty cases of ENT FBs and share our experience of removal of these foreign bodies.
