Abstract
|
|
|
hermal burns of the larynx after swallowing hot foods or drinks are frequently common in children, but are known to be extremely rare in adults. We report the case of a male adult who, upon swallowing hot food, experienced a burn of the larynx with airway obstruction. Since airway obstruction usually occurs within hours of burn of the larynx, the importance of persistent airway management is emphasized in this case.
