Abstract
Tracheobronchial foreign body aspiration in adults is rare when compared to children. In this case report, 76 years old female patient who aspirated a screw of tracheostomy canula which was taken out by fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) was presented. This case showed us that education of patients about stoma care is important. The FOB can be used safely to get foreign body from distal airways.
