    AbstractBoth ingestion and aspiration of foreign bodies are common events in children. If a child had something in his mouth and thereafter respiratory or swallowing complaints occur, both aspiration and ingestion are possible causes. Both events can be immediately life threatening or, if a direct threat is absent, cause significant long-term impairments for the children. Therefore, the identification of any possible threat is essential. This paper identifies the diagnostic and therapeutic options and needs that will ensure the best possible safety and the least possible consequential harm.Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.
