“…Nasal foreign bodies in adults occur because of: (1) Accident injuries; and (2) injuries due to concomitant mental disorders. Patil et al [ 6 ] reported a rare case of a nasal foreign body in a 42-year-old woman who was using a toothbrush head to relieve itching caused by allergic rhinitis when she fell, causing the toothbrush head to break and become lodged in the nasal cavity. Bahranifad et al [ 3 ] described a case of nasal lodgment of cotton resulting from a fall in the garden, which caused nasal mucosal congestion, swelling, and calcification into nasal stones.…”

BACKGROUND Nasal trauma presents a risk of foreign body invasion into the nasal cavity. However, in the early treatment stage of nasal trauma, patients and doctors are not always aware of possible foreign body invasion, resulting in delayed detection. We describe the case of an adult patient admitted to the hospital due to left nasal congestion accompanied by yellow, purulent, and bloody discharge. CASE SUMMARY Consultation with the patient revealed a history of nasal trauma 30 years prior that did not receive thorough examinations and imaging during treatment, resulting in a glass fragment retained in the nasal cavity adjacent to the orbit. After admission, computerized tomography (CT) confirmed the presence of the foreign body in the patient’s left nasal–maxillary sinus. The nasal foreign body led to symptoms such as chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, fungal infection, and deviated nasal septum. The foreign body was successfully removed by nasal endoscopy, polypectomy, sinus fungal removal, left middle turbinate conchoplasty, fenestration via the right inferior meatus, nasal endoscopic maxillary sinus cystectomy, and septolplasty. The operation was successful and without any complications. CONCLUSION CT scans should be performed in addition to necessary debridement sutures to avoid possible foreign body invasion during nasal trauma. Surgical planning should be tailored to the patient’s specific situation. The surgical method should be carefully selected, and sufficient preparation should be undertaken before the surgery to avoid possible displacement of the nasal foreign body.

Benda asing pada hidung merupakan kejadian yang relatif jarang terjadi. Jenis benda asing yang ditemukan , dari yang sering sampai yang tidak biasa berada di rongga hidung telah dilaporkan dalam literatur maupun laporan kasus sebelumnya. Laporan kasus ini bertujuan untuk membuat dokter waspada akan gejala pilek unilateral berulang terutama pada anak-anak, yang dapat mrupakan gejala adanya benda asing pada hidung. Kami menggambarkan kasus unik dari benda asing yang tertinggal di rongga hidung selama 30 hari dan jenisnya juga cukup jarang ditemukan. Pasien kami adalah seorang anak perempuan berusia 3 tahun. Gejala yang terutama adalah pilek berulang dan sudah berlangsung selama 30 hari. Pasien tersebut sudah berobat berulang kali ke dokter dan mendapat berbagai macam terapi, setelah terapi, sembuh, namun pilek akan muncul kembali. Ekstraksi dilakukan dengan alat speculum hidung dan ekstraktor korpal hidung serta bantuan keluarga dan perawat untuk memegang/memosisikan pasien sehingga benda asing yang berupa foto yang telipat kecil dapat dikeluarkan tanpa komplikasi. Kesimpulan: Benda asing hidung yang berada dalam jangka waktu lama di hidung dapat sulit untuk didiagnosis oleh dokter. Dokter harus mengenali penyebab mendasar yang menyebabkan gejala pilek hidung unilateral dan harus dianggap disebabkan oleh benda asing intra-nasal sampai terbukti sebaliknya.

“…One can see a scenario where a child may lodge a foreign body to block nasal irritation or drainage [23]. These NFBs may require surgery or end up in death if the object makes its way into the airway [24]. Interestingly, unilateral NFBs are observed in the right side more often than the left side, which may be indicative of handedness [25].…”
