Abstract

This paper reports a case of intranasal chemical burn and septal perforation caused by an alkaline disk battery accidentally entrapped in the nasal cavity of a 3-year-old girl. The battery in the nasal cavity was removed after about 44 hours, but nasal septal perforation without nasal deformity occurred about 3 weeks after accident.
