Even a healthy snacks may snatches a life - A case report

Foreign body aspiration (FBA) is an emergency condition and may be fatal. This condition is more common in children less than 3 years of age and male children are affected frequently. Among the foreign bodies inhaled, most of them are organic in nature and most commonly were lodged in right bronchus. Here we present a case report of an one and half year old male child who died of respiratory distress and found during autopsy that the cause for respiratory distress was foreign body aspiration.
