Foreign body aspiration (FBA) is not rare and is likely increasing as our population life expectancy rises. Acute complications include asphyxiation, obstructive emphysema, atelectasis, pneumothorax, and pneumomediastinum. Late complications usually arise from the development of an obstructive infectious process that presents as a recurrent pneumonia, and can lead even to the development of bronchopleural fistulas and a secondary empyema. Patients may develop bronchiectasis and even irreversible damage to the obstructed segment, with the development of airway stenosis. The complication rate is significantly higher when the diagnosis is delayed beyond 24 hours. Therefore, prompt recognition and removal is essential.

The use of cryotherapy probes has proved to be an alternative approach to remove foreign bodies through simple flexible bronchoscopy.

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) might be considered for some people with small lung tumors that are near the outer edge of the lungs, especially if they can't tolerate surgery. RFA uses high-energy radio waves to heat the tumor. A thin, needle-like probe is put through the skin and moved in until the tip is in the tumor.
