坏死性肺炎(NP)是一种罕见但严重的并发症,发生在异物保留后。我们报告了一例由气道异物滞留引起的婴儿严重NP,无窒息史。经过及时的气管镜检查和有效的抗生素治疗,她最初的临床症状得到缓解。然而,她随后表现出坏死性肺炎的肺部表现。为了降低异物吸入引起NP的风险,对于气道阻塞和双肺不对称的患者,及时的支气管镜诊断评估至关重要。
Necrotizing pneumonia (NP) is a rare but serious complication that occurs after foreign body retention. We report a case of severe NP in an infant caused by foreign body retention in the airway with no choking history. After a timely tracheoscopy and effective antibiotic treatment, her initial clinical symptoms were alleviated. However, she subsequently exhibited pulmonary manifestations of necrotizing pneumonia. To reduce the risk of NP from foreign body aspiration, for patients with airway obstruction and asymmetrical opacity of both lungs, timely diagnostic bronchoscopic evaluation is essential.
