Özet

Foreign body aspiration, which we are used to seeing in childhood, can also develop in healthy adults. Symptoms and findings are not specific, aspiration is not expected in healthy adults, especially if the patient does not describe aspiration in his history, the diagnosis is delayed and misdiagnosis may be made. Chronic cough and wheezing due to aspiration can mimic asthma. Here, a patient who has been followed up and treated for three years with the diagnosis of asthma and whose complaints did not improve with inhaler bronchodilator treatment is presented with current information to emphasize once again that foreign body aspiration may occur in healthy adult patients.
