Les corps étrangers de la cavité buccale sont surtout rencontrés chez l’enfant. Ils posent rarement des problèmes diagnostiques. Par contre la prise en charge thérapeutique peut faire recourir à l’escalade thérapeutique allant de la simple extraction au fauteuil, à l’extraction endoscopique sous anesthésie générale.
Nous rapportons un cas de corps étranger métallique de la cavité buccale (support métallique d’un parapluie) et mesurant 18 cm de long chez un garçon de 5 ans. La radiographie du crâne face/profil centrée sur la cavité buccale a été d’un intérêt diagnostique et surtout thérapeutique.
L’extraction du corps étranger s’est faite par voie endo-buccale sous anesthésie générale.
Oral foreign bodies are most encountered in children. They rarely pose diagnostic problems. But the therapeutic management can use the therapeutic escalation from simple extraction chair to extraction per endoscopic under general anesthesia.
We report an unusual case of metal foreign body (umbrella’s support) penetrating the oral cavity and measuring 18 cm long in a 5 years-old boy. A radiograph of skull centered on the mouth as great interest in the diagnostic and particularly in the management of the metallic foreign body.
The extraction of foreign body was done by oral approaches under general anesthesia.
