Introduction: A simple algorithm for bronchoscopy was prepared in very young children.Methods: The patients aged 0–5 years who were applied with bronchoscopy because of suspected foreign body aspiration (FBA) analysed.Results: Evaluations were made of 89 patients, as 55 (61.7%) in the FBA (+) group and 34 (38.3%) in the FBA (−) group. FBA was determined most in the 1–2 years age group (28 patients, 50.9%, p = 0.04) due to organic hard foodstuffs (94.5%, p < 0.001). The parameters found to be significant were witnessing the event (OR 12.133, 95% CI 3.147–46.774, p < 0.001) and not obtaining unilateral respiratory sounds (OR 7.556, 95% CI 2.681–21.292, p < 0.001). The most significant diagnostic finding was the determination of unilateral hyperventilation on X-ray (OR 16.730, 95% CI 4.541–61.632, p < 0.001). The operating time and length of stay in hospital was significantly shorter in the FBA (−) patients (p < 0.001).Conclusion: The presence of a witness, not obtaining unilateral respiratory sounds, and unilateral hyperventilation seen on X-ray are indications for bronchoscopy. In FBA (−) patients applied with bronchoscopy, the complication rate associated with the procedure is low, and the operating time and length of stay in hospital are short.
