Retrieval of tracheobronchial foreign bodies by short flexible endoscopy in children

Flexible endoscopy (FE) is frequently used to diagnose tracheobronchial foreign bodies (TBFB). However, it is still controversial for retrieval of TBFB in pediatric field. This study aims at reporting and evaluating our experiences of using short-length FE with a non-invasive ventilation (NIV) technique and intensive care unit (ICU) support in retrieving pediatric TBFB.
