Abstract

To remove the foreign body, the patient was taken to the thoracic department of the St. Vladimir children's city clinical Hospital, where esophagoscopy was performed. despite the relatively large size of the aspirated object, it was possible to remove it without complications through the natural respiratory tract.
Key words: differential diagnosis, esophageal foreign body, esophagoscopy.
