The foreign body aspiration into the respiratory system is an emergency situation with a high mortality rate, when diagnosis and treatment are delayed which can cause complications and repeated hospitalizations. Although it is especially common in children under the age of five, it can be seen at any age in chronically ill children with neurological problems. However, it is rarely seen in pediatric patients with tracheostomy and dependent on a home mechanical ventilator due to their nutritional style and severe neurological retardation. In this study, foreign body aspiration that developed in a pediatric patient with tracheostomy who was followed up with a home mechanical ventilator and fed from gastrostomy was presented.
Solunum sistemine yabancı cisim aspirasyonu mortalitesi yüksek olan, tanı ve tedavide gecikildiğinde komplikasyonlara ve tekrarlı yatışlara neden olabilen acil bir durumdur. Özellikle beş yaş altı çocuk hastalarda sık görülmesine rağmen, nörolojik problemlere sahip kronik hasta çocuklarda her yaşta görülebilir. Ancak trakeostomili ve ev tipi mekanik ventilatöre bağımlı yaşayan çocuk hastalarda ağır nöroloji gerilik ve beslenme şekli ile ilgili olarak nadiren görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada trakeostomili ve ev tipi mekanik ventilatör ile izlemde olan ve gastrostomiden beslenen bir çocuk hastada gelişen yabancı cisim aspirasyonu sunulmuştur.
