Abstract (2. Language): 
Intrathoracic sewing needle was not reported in children. We present two cases with intrathoracic sewing needle due to their rarity and incidental presentation. Even though rare, foreign body penetration should be considered as a potential cause in addition to aspiration when a sharp foreign body is detected in child’s thorax.
