Background: A tracheal foreign body is a common airway aspiration that creates an emergency, which often causes unobserved respiratory problems and requires management. Iatrogenic tracheal foreign bodies are rarely observed, which results in tracheal obstruction. If the foreign body were removed from the tracheobronchial system, it would save lives. A similar case of a tracheal foreign body was focused on, which was caused by medical glue used during preoperative computed tomography localization of pulmonary nodules.
Case Presentation: The foreign body was deposited in the right upper bronchi, accidentally discovered after anesthesia when a double-lumen tube was located by fiber bronchoscopy. Following a video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, the foreign body was removed using a respiratory endoscopy without subsequent adverse consequences for the patient.
Conclusions: There is a risk of complications from iatrogenic airway foreign bodies for preoperative localization of pulmonary nodules by injecting cyanoacrylate glue.

Introduction: Ingestion of foreign bodies is a significant problem among children, which necessitates early intervention and may lead to serious morbidity and even mortality.
Aim: To estimate the pattern of foreign body ingestion among children and identify the role of management and its outcomes in relation to the type and site of foreign bodies.
Material And Methods: Our study was carried out on patients who attended the Emergency Department of the Rapareen Teaching Hospital for Paediatrics in Erbil city and were referred to the Paediatric Gastroenterology Unit during between March 2019 and January 2023.

Gossypiboma is a unique postoperative complication characterized by the presence of a surgical sponge after surgery. This condition is seldom encountered. Owing to its serious medicolegal implications it remains underreported leading to a blurred clinical spectrum.

Cell microencapsulation technologies allow non-autologous implantation of therapeutic cells for sustained drug delivery purposes. The perm-selective membrane of these systems provides resistance to rupture, stablishes the upper molecular weight limit in bidirectional diffusion of molecules, and affects biocompatibility. Thus, despite being a decisive factor to succeed in terms of biosafety and therapeutic efficacy, little progress has been made in its optimization so far.

Objectives: The objective of the study is to describe a surgical technique of intestinal foreign body retrieval without gastrotomy using an endoscopic grasper and digital manipulation, and to compare short-term outcomes with patients who had similar obstructive intestinal foreign bodies removed via gastrotomy.
Materials And Methods: Medical records of dogs and cats with intestinal foreign bodies that underwent treatment with either the orogastric retrieval technique or gastrotomy between November 2021 and July 2023 were extracted. A comparison of the short-term outcomes was performed between the techniques.
