OBJECTIVE: To study the clinical presentation and management of fractured tracheostomy tube (FTT) presenting as tracheobronchial foreign body (FB) in children.
METHODS: A retrospective chart review of children with a diagnosis of FTT, FB in tracheobronchial tree was carried out. Data regarding the patients' demographic details, diagnosis, clinical presentation and management were noted and analyzed.
RESULTS: Total 8 cases (males 3 and females 5, average age 8.8 years, range 1-15 years) wearing tracheostomy tube for an average period of 2 years (range 3 months-4 years) were found. Indications for tracheostomy were bilateral abductor palsy, subglottic stenosis and congenital subglottic hemangioma in 4 (50%), 3 (37.5%) and 1 (12.5%) cases, respectively. Classical triad of FB aspiration (coughing/choking, wheezing and reduced breath sounds) was present in 6 (75%) patients. Aspirated FTTs were Jackson's metallic inner tube, Romson's polyvinyl chloride plastic tube and Fuller's outer tube flange in 4 (50%), 3 (37.5%) and 1 (12.5%) respectively. The most common fracture site was at the junction between tube and neck plates {in 7 (87.5%) children}. Sites of lodgment of FTT were right bronchus, trachea and both trachea and left bronchus in 5 (62.5%), 2 (25%) and 1 (12.5%) cases, respectively. FTTs were retrieved by transtracheostomal rigid bronchoscopy and exploring the tracheostomal wound in 7 cases and 1 case, respectively.
CONCLUSION: Though FTT presenting as pediatric tracheobronchial FB is rare, it should be considered in differential diagnosis in a tracheostomised child with respiratory distress. When diagnosed, FTT removal is best done using a rigid bronchoscope through the tracheal stoma.
