Abstract

Despite the obvious presence of easily accessible toxic products in daily life, the incidence of chemical burns in children is increasing. CASE PRESENTATION: A 4-year-old girl sustained extensive chemical burns and subsequent systemic toxicity after exposure to paint remover. This report summarizes the initial investigation, management plan, and treatment outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Education and awareness are the most effective preventive measures against chemical burns.
