Fishbone



46 year old male patient with a 2-hour history of foreign body sensation  and odynophagia after eating fish. An indirect laryngoscopy was performed which revealed a fishbone in the supraglottic area, from epiglottis laryngeal surface to posterior hypopharyngeal wall. The fishbone was removed in office, using indirect laryngoscopy and a 90 degree clamp.
