Abstract

Spontaneous aspiration of a long tree twig as foreign body is an extremely rare condition. The presence of a permanent tracheal stoma in a laryngectomized patient should be considered as a predisposing factor for foreign body aspiration.

Keywords: Foreign body; long tree twig spontaneous aspiration; tracheal stoma.
