Providing care to children who have aspirated foreign bodies into the airways is often a difficult task. Its solution depends on the nature, forms, localization, fixation of foreign bodies and the duration of their stay in the tracheobronchial tree. As a rule, it requires individualization of the treatment tactics and the choice of the optimal instrument. Currently, bronchoscopy is the main method of foreign body removal, but when they are firmly embedded in the walls of the tracheobronchial tree it becomes necessary to perform surgical intervention.
