Subject to evaluation were also demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients, types and anatomic locations of FBs, locations of FB by age groups, the method used to remove FBs and the distribution of FB cases by months. <br><b>Results:<\/b> A total of 829 FB cases were evaluated in this study. The mean age of patients was 47.8 \u00b1 31.4 months. Of all patients, 404 (48.5%) were male, and 425 (51.2%) were female. The nose (58.7%) and the ear (20.2%) were the most common anatomical locations followed by mouth\/pharynx\/tonsil (12.3%), esophagus (6.2%) and the laryngotracheobronchial tree (2.4%). The most common FBs in different locations were beads in the nose (30.8%), beads in the ear (32.1%), fishbones in the mouth\/pharynx\/tonsil (56.8%), nuts and peanuts in laryngotracheobronchial tree (70%) and a coin\/disc battery in the esophagus (80.7%). <br><b>Conclusion:<\/b> FB in ENT is among the emergency conditions that require different diagnostic and treatment approaches based on anatomic localizations. Proper vision, adequate equipment and immobilization are important in the removal of ENT foreign bodies in children.\n\n<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5604\/01.3001.0014.1579","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,8]],"date-time":"2020-07-08T14:47:52Z","timestamp":1594219672000},"page":"35-40","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Management of foreign bodies in the ear, nose\nand throat in children: a review of 829 cases\nfrom Northern Anatolia"],"prefix":"10.5604","volume":"74","author":[{"given":"Ceyhun","family":"Aksakal","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Tokat State Hospital, Tokat, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3689","reference":[{"key":"203742r1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Thompson S.K., Wein R.O., Dutcher P.O.: External auditory canal foreign body removal: management practices and outcomes.
