Abstract：
The nasopharynx is a rare anatomical location where a foreign body may become lodged after being ingested or inhaled. We are presenting a rare case of nasopharyngeal foreign body impaction in a two-and-a-half-year-old child that had been missed for almost a year. The child presented with a history of right-sided foul-smelling nasal discharge, snoring and mouth breathing. An X-Ray soft tissue lateral view of the post-nasal space showed an irregular partially radiopaque nasopharyngeal foreign body. The removal of the foreign body was performed under general anaesthesia successfully. Foreign body impaction in the nasopharynx can easily be missed and it is important to keep this region in mind when dealing with missing inhaled or ingested foreign bodies.
摘要：
鼻咽是一种罕见的解剖位置，异物在摄入或吸入后可能会滞留。我们正在介绍一例罕见的鼻咽异物嵌塞病例，该病例已错过了将近一年。这名儿童有右侧恶臭的鼻涕史，打鼾和嘴巴呼吸。鼻后空间的X线软组织侧视图显示不规则的部分不透射线的鼻咽异物。异物的取出在全身麻醉下成功进行。鼻咽中的异物撞击很容易被错过，在处理吸入或摄入的异物丢失时，重要的是要记住这个区域。
