dc.description.abstractTracheostomy is a life saving procedure and many a times patients are discharged with permanent tracheostomy tubes. Rarely, a tracheostomy tube may break and enter the tracheobronchial tree. We present a case of an adult female in whom the broken tracheostomy tube entered the right main bronchus and was removed by fiberoptic bronchoscopy under topical anaesthesia.en_US
