Their mean age was4.3±3.06 years (age range: 4 months-16 years). Foreign body was found on the right side in 928 (53.8%),on the left-side in 768 (44.5%) and bilaterally in 28(1.6%) patients. The foreign bodies were inorganicsubstances such as beads, paper, napkins, toy parts,batteries, pencils, erasers in 1287 cases (74.7%) andorganic materials such as hazelnuts, walnuts and fruitseeds in 437 cases (25.3%). The foreign bodies wereextracted in outpatient settings in 1709 cases. Fifteenpatients in whom the foreign body was located in theposterior region and/or who were uncooperative weretreated under anesthesia. The most common complication was epistaxis.
