With the wide use of button battery in everyday life, the risk associated with its use is also increasing. Mechanical pressure, chemical and electrical burn caused by button battery in the nasal cavity result in necrosis. Prolonged presence of button battery in the nasal cavity may also incur serious side effects of cosmetic nature, including saddle nose. Thus prompt diagnosis and treatment is important when button battery is detected in the nasal cavity. We present two cases of button battery in the nasal cavity with review of literatures.
