description The aim of this study is to determine some parameters such as the structure of foreign body, age of patient etc. in patients with foreign body in their nasal cavity. The patients who referred to our hospital with foreign body in their nasal cavity between November 2013 and November 2014 are included to study. Data were collected retrospectively from patients records. 80 patients had foreign body in their nasal cavity. 45(%56.25) of them have foreign body in right nasal cavity, while 35 have in left one (%43.75). 48 of the patients were male (%60), 32 of them were female (%40). The foreign bodies were more common in early ages. 28 of patients (%35) were between age 0-2, 32 of them (%40) were between age 2-4, 15 of them (%19) were between age 5-8 and 5 of them (%6) were older than 8 years old. The foreign bodies mostly consist of little plastic substances (18 patients, %22.5), beans (16 patients %20), paper particles (12 patients, %12) and sponge (7 patients, %8.75). Only 5 of patients had complication of epistaxis after removal of foreign body. Foreign bodies in nasal cavity are common disorders of pediatric population. Although it is generally easy to remove foreign bodies from nasal cavity, it must be also considered that, all foreign bodies of nasal cavity have potential risk to obstruct the airway. Because of this, the foreign body in the nasal cavity is an emergency situation. [Med-Science 2015; 4(1.000): 2065-72]
