Removal of an aspirated tooth from the bronchus using a cryoprobe: A case report

Abstract An 88‐year‐old bedridden man with Alzheimer's disease developed fever and hypoxaemia. Chest radiography showed obstructive pneumonia caused by a foreign body in the airway. Examination using a flexible bronchoscope revealed a silver‐crowned molar, thought to have fallen out due to root...
