Description

We report a case of pharyngeal fishbone requiring transcervical surgery. A fishbone was clearly identified by 3-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT). A 67-year-old man complaining a sore throat after eating fish. The fishbone was located in the extrapharyngeal space between the hyoid bone and tongue. After a submental transcervical incision, the foreign body was easily found in the genioglossus muscle and removed. We found 3D-CT to be very useful in diagnosing and determining foreign body's surgical orientation.<br>
