Two cases of fish-bone foreign body were reported. Case 1 was a 75-year-old female who suffered from cervical pains after eating bonito. No foreign bodies were found by indirect laryngoscopical nor esophagoscopical examination. The foreign body was found embedded in the posterior wall of the pharyx on X-ray and CT scan. Case 2 was a 77-year-old female who had pains after eating bonito. Neither indirect laryngoscopical nor esophagoscopical examination revealed any foreign bodies in the pharyngoesophageal space. X-ray and CT scan revealed an extra-esophageal foreign body with a surrounding periesophageal abscess and cervical subcutaneous emphysema. By an extra cervical incision, the foreign body was found penetrating the esophagus and reaching carotid artery. These two cases suggest the importance of conducting X-rays and CT scans even if no foreign bodies are found under laryngo-esophagoscopical examination.

The three-dimensional imaging used so far has processed digitalized information on the morphology of organs by the computer graphics technique. However, the conventional method has not been used clinically, because the processing of information has been inadequate.We observed the external aperture of the vestibular aqueduct in vivo using three-dimensional imaging by the surface reconstruction method. The width was measured in normal and diseased ears. Significant narrowing was observed in patients with Meniere's disease, while no difference in width was noted between normal subjects and those with chronic otitis media.This technique can be used to examine not only on the vestibular aqueduct but also other structures in the temporal bone. It should be useful in clarifying the pathophysiology of inner ear diseases and also in the surgical treatment.
