Abstract
A wide range of pediatric airway foreign bodies (FB) has been reported in literature. This worldwide problem of ingestion, inhalation and aspiration FB is a life-threatening clinical airway obstruction. We report the rare occurrence of a syndromic child presenting with a retained inner cannula of tracheostomy tube in the right main bronchus.
