title: [Two atypical courses of bronchial foreign body in children].
abstract: The long-term course of bronchial foreign body retention is unknown. This article reports 2 cases with late diagnosis and their progression. In the first case, a transcutaneous eviction of the foreign body occurred. Migration through the lung and the muscular wall might have been facilitated by cough and the elongated shape of the foreign body. In the second case, retention of the foreign body produced bronchiectasis. Given the impossibility of extraction and the localized, symptomatic, and invalidating lung complications, lobectomy was performed. Surgical indications after foreign body inhalation remain exceptional and are not frequently reported in the literature.
