Introduction: Rigid bronchoscopy under general anesthesia (GA) is the gold standard for pediatric foreign body (FB) removal. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) can be tried with rigid bronchoscopy backup. Case description: A 3-year-old child has a cough with hemoptysis. Chest X-ray—an opaque shadow in the trachea. Discussion: Induction with inhalation anesthetic or intravenous (IV) drugs and controlled ventilation is suitable for rigid bronchoscopy. Quiet patient during induction avoids displacement of FB, no sedative premedication to maintain respiration. Steroids—dexamethasone 0.4–1 mg/kg for treatment of inflammation and airway edema. Antibiotic for pulmonary infection and jet ventilation during bronchoscopy can avoid hypoxia and atelectasis but increases the chances of barotrauma; neuromuscular blockade suppresses the patient’s mobility and reflexes to avoid airway trauma and coughing to make the surgeon comfortable. Securing IV line before induction of anesthesia and analgesia for postoperative pain relief. IV anesthesia technique with propofol, fentanyl/remifentanil is becoming popular for maintenance of a constant level of anesthesia during bronchoscopy. Conclusion: For pediatric glass FB bronchus/trachea removal, rigid bronchoscopy under GA is the safest choice. Ventilating bronchoscope with side arm ventilation and muscle relaxation is the recommended method for airway glass FB removal to avoid damage to the airway, vocal cords, and oral structures.
