dc.description.abstractAbstract: Foreign body (FB) aspiration is a serious medical problem that can mimic other respiratory conditions. Isolated pleural effusion is a rare presentation of FB aspiration. We report herein a six years old boy presenting with fever and cough without history of choking and respiratory distress and X-ray chest suggestive of pleural effusion. Although, the child was initially misdiagnosed as pneumonia with sympneumonic effusion, the diagnosis was established only once he coughed out a piece of foreign body. The present case highlights that FB aspiration, even though rare, should be considered as one of the differential diagnosis of pleural effusion.
