“…In this study, 54 patients were included, and there was no significant gender predominance. This is true for most published articles; male patients were slightly more common, at 5-10%, than female patients [2,5,[9][10][11]. One study involving 1000 cases found male predomi-nance among toddlers compared to younger infants or older children [12].…”

“…Most of the swallowed bodies were disc batteries, followed by coins, and then others. This is unlike the majority of studies because coins represent the most frequently ingested bodies in Iran and many other countries [2,9,11,[13][14][15] and may account for more than 60% of registered cases, except for a study in Sri Lanka [10] in 2013 that included 53 patients and resulted in 24.5% of ingested materials being button batteries, while coins were second despite the availability of coins in their currency. In Table III of this article, the younger age group is more prone to button battery consumption, which is contrary to most reports [12,14] that reveal coins dominating through different age groups.…”

“…A review of the medical reports of 165 children during a period of 5 years in Turkey revealed that only 34 (20.61%) had no symptoms, and they recruited those with ENT and respiratory manifestations [1]. Thirty-three patients presented within 24 h, even when asymptomatic, justified by evolving awareness about the hazards, especially button battery ingestion, and the availability of paediatric endoscopy in the paediatric teaching hospital; most papers share the same quick consultation response [1,5,11].…”

Introduction: Ingestion of foreign bodies is a significant problem among children, which necessitates early intervention and may lead to serious morbidity and even mortality.Aim: To estimate the pattern of foreign body ingestion among children and identify the role of management and its outcomes in relation to the type and site of foreign bodies.Material and methods: Our study was carried out on patients who attended the Emergency Department of the Rapareen Teaching Hospital for Paediatrics in Erbil city and were referred to the Paediatric Gastroenterology Unit during between March 2019 and January 2023. All clinical and demographic data were entered and then analysed using SPSS.Results: Fifty-four patients visited or were admitted to the Rapareen Hospital Emergency Department with a history of ingestion of foreign bodies, with a median age of 4 years (mean age: 4.14 ±2.15 years) and a nearly equal male-to-female ratio (1.16 : 1). Most of the foreign bodies were radiopaque, and the majority were located in the oesophagus at the time of initial presentation. Disc batteries (27.8%) were the commonest foreign body, followed by coins (20.4%), of which 66.7% were retrieved endoscopically, while 4 patients needed surgical intervention. Cross-tabulation reveals a significant association between the site of materials and the early presentation, type of object, and outcome. Also, a significant association was established between the type of foreign body and gender, age, time of presentation, and outcome.Conclusions: The button battery was the most common foreign body ingested among the children, and the majority were located in the oesophagus and extracted by endoscopy.

“…This is probably due to the fact that impacted fish bones in the esophagus are directly referred to otolaryngology department from the emergency and removed endoscopically there. Some studies from India also reported coin to be the most common type and fish bone ingestion was very infrequent (Nijhawan et al, 2003;Sinha and Kumar, 2016;Lakhwani and Patel, 2018). Coins that lodge distal to lower esophagus usually pass spontaneously.…”

Foreign body (FB) ingestion is common in children worldwide. Type of FB ingestion varies among cultures and countries. We retrospectively reviewed all patients of foreign body ingestion who were admitted in Department of Pediatric Surgery, Chittagong Medical College Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019 (total 3 years). Age, Sex, type of foreign body, hospital stay, management and outcome were analyzed. A total of 91 children were admitted with ingestion of FB during this period; male 61, female 30 (male to female ratio 2:1). Age ranged from 3 months to 12 years (median 3.5 ± 3.8 years). Fifty eight percent were less than 5 years old. Children ingested 21 different types of FB; however ingestion of coin was most common (24 patients, 26.37%) followed by different types of pins (19 patients, 20.88%), nail (6 patients, 6.59%), battery (5 patients, 5.49%), screw (5 patients, 5.49%), needle (4 patients, 4.40%), ring (4 patients, 4.40%) and others (18 patients). Sharp object ingestion is higher in older (>5 year) age group. Hospital stay ranged from 0 day to 19 days (mean 1.6 ± 2.1 day). Endoscopic removal needed in 4 patients (coin-2, chain 2), bronchoscopic removal in 1 (pin) and one patient needed laparotomy (open hair pin). There was no mortality. The pattern of FB ingestion is similar to many other countries. Small, smooth objects pass spontaneously. Endoscopic or surgical intervention is sometimes needed if significant symptoms develop or if the object fails to progress through the gastrointestinal tract. Asian J. Med. Biol. Res.

“…2 Foreign body ingestion patients presented with wide range of symptoms and sign depending upon age, nature of foreign body, anatomical site of lodgment, and length of time since ingestion. 6,7 Older children and nonimpaired adults may identify the ingestion and localize discomfort. Frequently, symptoms occur well after the patient ingest the foreign body.…”

Background: Foreign bodies ingestion in children is very common, and most events occur inchildren between 6 months and 3 years. Alive fish foreign body is a rare case that could lead intoupper airway obstruction. The diagnosis was based on history, clinical and examinations. Purpose: Toreport a case and the management of an alive fish as foreign body in orohypopharynx. Case report: A5 years old boy was brought with alive fish as foreign body in the orohypopharynx. The managementwas foreign body extraction and followed by a rigid esophagoscopy procedure. Clinical question:What is the management of a fish as foreign body in orohypopharynx? Method: Evidence basedliterature study of foreign body fish in orohypopharynx. Result: Management of foreign body a fish inorohypophariynx by extraction and rigid esophagoscopy gave a good result. Conclusion: Precisediagnosis and treatment could prevent any complications caused by foreign body a fish inorohypopharynx. It is important to secure the airway, making sure there is no part of the foreign bodyleft and evaluating the esophagus mucosa. If there is any sign of mucosa injury, nasogastric tube isapplied until the injury heals.ABSTRAKLatar belakang: Tertelan benda asing pada anak sangat umum, sering terjadi, dan palingbanyak terjadi pada usia 6 bulan hingga 3 tahun. Benda asing ikan hidup merupakan kasus yangjarang dan dapat menyebabkan sumbatan jalan nafas atas. Diagnosis berdasarkan anamnesis,pemeriksaan fisik dan radiologi. Tujuan: Melaporkan sebuah kasus tatalaksana benda asing ikanhidup pada orohipofaring. Laporan kasus: Dilaporkan satu kasus seorang anak laki-laki berusia 5tahun dengan benda asing ikan hidup di orohipofaring. Tatalaksana pada kasus ini ialah ekstraksibenda asing dan esofagoskopi kaku. Pertanyaan klinis: Bagaimana tatalaksana kasus benda asingikan di orohipofaring? Metode: Berbasis bukti mengenai benda asing ikan di orohipofaring melaluidatabase Cochrane library, Pubmed Medline, dan pencarian manual. Hasil: Tatalaksana benda asingikan di orohipofaring dengan ekstraksi benda asing dan esofagoskopi kaku memberikan hasil yangbaik. Kesimpulan: Diagnosis dan tatalaksana yang tepat dapat menghindari terjadinya komplikasipada kasus benda asing ikan di orohipofaring. Penting untuk menjaga patensi jalan nafas,memastikan tidak ada bagian dari benda asing yang tertinggal serta mengevaluasi mukosa esofagus.Jika terdapat trauma pada mukosa, pemasangan nasogastric tube dapat dilakukan hingga terjadipenyembuhan luka.
