Gunshot wounds are now becoming more frequent as a result of urban violence. Projectile migration to the lumen of the airways is very rare and requires multidisciplinary management. This is a case of a 38-year-old woman attacked by third parties, with multiple gunshot wounds to the face and craneum that initially presents a projectile in the face, which is subsequently aspirated into the airway requiring its extraction by bronchoscopy. This type of patient requires the management of several specialties to solve the problem.

Palabras llave : Foreign body; airway; facial trauma; gunshot wound.
