Abstract

The article describes the experience of rigid bronchoscopy under general anesthesia in children. The characteristics of foreign bodies, localization, clinical presentation, diagnostics and complications arising after aspiration have been described in details. Based on the studied results optimal methods and tactics to remove foreign bodies from the respiratory tract in children were chosen. Rigid bronchoscopy is the method of choice, which provides safe capturing and removing foreign bodies while maintaining visual control, without the risk of complications. It should also be noted that this procedure in children requires proper organization of work, high qualification of doctors, paramedical staff and the availability of modern equipment.
