    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Gastroenterology
    • Otolaryngology
    • Anesthesiology

    Background:

    • Foreign body ingestion is a common pediatric emergency.
    • Hypopharyngeal foreign bodies pose significant risks, including perforation.
    • Infants present unique challenges for foreign body removal due to airway anatomy.

    Observation:

    • A 14-month-old boy experienced esophageal perforation post-foreign body extraction.
    • The foreign body was located in the hypopharynx.
    • General anesthesia was utilized for the extraction procedure.

    Findings:

    • Esophageal perforation is a potential complication of hypopharyngeal foreign body extraction in infants.
    • General anesthesia facilitates safer and more controlled foreign body removal in this age group.
