Tracheobronchial foreign body (TFB) aspiration can be a life-threatening emergency requiring immediate intervention, even though it is less common in adults than in children. It also can be a chronic non-specific symptom mimicking other lung diseases, from bronchial asthma to severe obstructive pneumonia. Successful removal of the TFB in different circumstances should be performed to reduce morbidity and mortality. A 78-year-old man aspirated a metallic dental implant, with the presenting symptoms of cough and mild fever. The implant was not visible by flexible video bronchoscopy in the supine position. It was subsequently removed successfully by flexible video bronchoscopy using the simple method of a ”postural maneuver”.
