摘要
We report the case of a 60-year-old male with history of surgery for tracheal stenosis 21 years prior to the onset of difficult asthma-like symptoms. Upon exploring the tracheobronchial tree using the fiberoptic bronchoscope, a surgical gauze was found. The foreign body migrated transluminally from the mediastinum into the trachea and its removal was possible with rigid bronchoscopy leading to a rapid recovery of his symptoms. Copyright (C) 2005 S.
