Abstract:
Foreign bodies of the larynx, pharynx, and laryngopharynx are quite common cases in otorhinolaryngological practice. At the same time, they make up a significant proportion of emergency surgical interventions among other ENT pathologies. Foreign bodies can damage the walls of the organ, causing dangerous complications. Diagnosis is usually based on data from laryngoscopy or endoscopy. However, in rare cases, additional research methods, such as computed tomography, are required. With deep localization of foreign bodies of the laryngopharynx, their removal is difficult, as a result of which they resort to surgical intervention. This article is a description of a foreign body (chicken bone) of unusual localization in a 57-year-old female patient. The thin sharp bone migrated entirely into the soft tissues of the left pyriform sinus, which was diagnosed by computed tomography. Since it was not possible to remove the foreign body under the control of laryngoscopy, it was decided to perform a left-sided colotomy. After a successful operation, the patient’s condition was satisfactory, the wound healed by primary intention, the sutures were removed on the seventh day after the operation. The article presents the data upon admission of the patient as well as the course of treatment illustrated by the picture of changes presented on tomography scans.
