Objective To analyze the clinical diagnosis and treatment of pediatric tracheo-bronchial foreign body cases and therapeutic effects. Methods A retrospective review of the clinical manifestations, the feature of ima- geology and the methods of removing foreign body of 120 cases of pediatric tracheobronchial foreign body, which were confirmed with tracheobronchial foreign body by direct laryngoscope or rigid bronchoscope. Results History of aspiration was present in 90.8 % (109/120) of all cases, penetration syndrome was present in 100 % (120/120) of all cases. Among 39 cases with tracheal foreign body, there were 26 cases with audible flapping sound in trachea, the fre- quency was 66.7 %. With the X-ray chest fluoroscopy showing media-stinal swaying,59 cases were confirmed to be with foreign body by bronchoscope. The accurate rate of diagnosing traeheobronehial foreign body via CT was 86.2 % (25/29). All cases were confirmed and treated by direct laryngoscope and rigid bronchoscope. The foreign bodies of 119 cases were successfully removed. 1 patient was turned into the department of chest surgery. Conclusion History of aspiration, penetration syndrome, audible flapping sound in trachea, X-ray chest fluoroscopy showing mediastinal swaying are important evidence in diagnosing tracheobronchial foreign body. The accurate rate of diag- nosing tracheobronchial foreign body via chest CT is relatively high. Direct laryngoscope and bronchoscopy are con- firming methods in diagnosing tracheobronehial foreign body; it is effective methods to remove traehco-bronchial for- eign body by direct laryngoscope and rigid bronchoscope.

Objective To explore the clinical features and treatment of thyroid carcinoma in children. Method The clinical data of 19 children under 14 years old with thyroid carcinoma diagnosed and treated from January 2003 to January 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Results In 19 cases (12 males and 7 females), there were 18 cases of papillocarcinoma and one case pf follicular carcinoma. Unilateral lobectomy plus isthmectomy was performed in 6 cases, subtotal thyroidectomy in 4 cases and total thyroidectomy in 9 cases. Unilateral cervical lymph node dissection was performed in 5 cases and bilateral in 11 cases. After the operation, multiple lesions were confirmed by pathology in 9 cases, thyroid capsular invasion in 14 cases, lymphatic metastasis in 15 cases and distant metastasis in 5 cases. All the patients were treated with TSH, and 10 cases were treated with 131I after operation. The median follow-up time was 63 months. There was no death in all cases, while local residual tumor recurrence was found in 2 cases and cervical lymph node metastasis in 2 cases and distant metastasis in one case. Conclusion Thyroid carcinoma in children is mostly well-differentiated, so the overall prognosis is better. However, children who have extracapsular invasion, multiple lesions in bilateral thyroid, cervical lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis are at high risks and should be treated with comprehensive therapy that includes total thyroidectomy.
