“…In the study conducted by Shreshta et al, 75.9% cases belong to the age-groups of 75.9%, whereas in our study we observed an incidence of foreign bodies in 74% patients, who belonged to the age-group of 2-20 years (8) . In literature, we have observed that 50.1% of all ENT foreign bodies reported were in the age below eight, which is in broad agreement to our study where 60% patients belong to age group of 2-10 years (2,10,16) .…”

“…In the developed world, there are established and continually evolving protocols for the management whereas in the developing countries such protocols do not exist. Many people owing to general lack of awareness resort to self-treatment, without contacting professionals to save time, money, thinking it to be a minor ailment, lack of otolaryngologists and thus lead to complications (10)(11)(12)(13) . FB removal can require instruments which are as simple as aural syringes, foreign body hooks and wax probes, to complex instruments like endoscopes, laryngoscopes and ventilating bronchoscopes.…”

ÖZAmaç: Bu çalışmada burunda yabancı cisim tanısı konulan hastaların klinik belirtileri ve tedavi protokolleri araştırıldı. Hastalar ve Yöntemler:Kasım 2008 -Temmuz 2013 tarihleri arasında burunda yabancı cisim tanısı konulan ve tedavisi yapılan 130 hasta (72 erkek, 58 kadın; ort. yaş 3.65±2.31 yıl; dağılım 15 ay-72 yıl) geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Hastaların yaş ve cinsiyeti, yabancı cismin türü, hangi tarafta olduğu, belirti ve semptomları, tedavi uygulamaları ve sonuçları kaydedildi. Bulgular:Hastaların büyük bir çoğunluğu 2-5 yaş arasındaki çocuklardı (n=113, %86.9). En fazla görülen yabancı cisimler; küçük plastik oyuncak parçaları (%43.8) fındık, ceviz, mısır ve fasulye gibi tohum taneleri (%29.2) idi. Hastaların 74'ünde (%56.9) sağ, 54'ünde (%41.6) sol nazal pasajda ve ikisinde (%1.5) ise her iki burun deliğinde yabancı cisim izlendi. Hastaların %92.3'ü ilk 24 saat içerisinde kliniğimize başvurdu.Sonuç: Buruna yabancı cisim kaçması kulak burun boğaz hastalıkları acilinde sık karşılaşılan bir durumdur. Genellikle hayati bir risk oluşturmayan bu durum uzun dönemde çeşitli komplikasyonlara yol açabileceğinden acil müdahale gerektirir. Çocuk bakımından sorumlu ebeveyn ve bakıcılar buruna kaçabilecek cisimlerin çocukların ulaşabileceği yerlerde bulundurmamaları ve buruna yabancı cisim kaçması durumlarında hekime başvurmaları konusunda bilinçlendirilmelidir.Anahtar Sözcükler: Yabancı cisim; burun boşluğu; rinolit. ABSTRACT Objectives:This study aims to investigate clinical manifestations and treatment protocols in patients with a diagnosis of nasal foreign bodies. Patients and Methods:We retrospectively evaluated 130 patients (72 males, 58 females; mean age 3.65±2.31 years; range 15 month to 72 years) who were diagnosed with nasal foreign bodies and received treatment between November 2008 and July 2013. Age and sex of the patients, type of foreign body, side of presentation, signs and symptoms, management practices, and outcomes were recorded. Results:Most of the patients were children between the ages of 2 and 5 (n=113, 86.9%). The most common foreign bodies were small plastic toys (43.8%), nut, walnut, corn, bean and the other seed grains (29.2%). Foreign bodies were detected in the right nasal passage in 74 patients (56.9%), left nasal passage in 54 patients (41.6%) and both nostrils in two patients (1.5%). Of the patients, 92.3% were admitted to our clinic within 24 hours. Conclusion:Nasal foreign bodies are frequent encountered in the emergency setting of ear, nose, and throat diseases. Although they are not life-threatening conditions, they require urgent intervention, as they may lead to several complications in the long-term. Parents and caregivers of children should keep objects which can be put into the nose away and be instructed that they should consult a physician in case of nasal foreign bodies.

A variety of consumer products carry inherent risks for becoming nasal foreign bodies, with nearly 200,000 ED visits over a 5-year period. Jewelry beads, paper products, and toys were the most common products noted. Speedy recognition and retrieval of these items and other objects noted is imperative for avoidance of deleterious sequelae. Demographic-specific trends noted and organized by age and gender may be an invaluable adjunct for patient history-taking and clinical examination.
