A Case of the Removal of a Foreign Body From the Hard Palate With the Aid of Nebulized Lidocaine
Kevin M Boehm
Abstract
Although foreign bodies are common chief complaints in pediatrics, foreign bodies in the hard palate are rarely the cause of the patient’s complaint. We present the case of a three-year-old with a foreign body retained in the hard palate that we removed with the aid of nebulized lidocaine.
