[A foreign body discovered incidentally during a tonsillectomy].

We report an unusual observation of a child aged 07, who consulted us for a chronic odynophagia rebellious to multiple treatments. It dates back to one year followed by pediatrics under antibiotic therapy and anti-inflammatory in whom the examination found hypertrophy noninflammatory obstructive tonsillar. The last episode would go back a month. The rest of the general exam was unremarkable. An indication for tonsillectomy was made and was performed. We fortuitously find a large fishbone skewered in his right tonsil. The postoperative consequences were simple. With a follow-up of 12 months, the patient is doing well.
