“…9 Four mechanisms of injury have been suggested: (1) Leakage of battery contents with direct corrosive damage on the mucosa, (2) direct electrical current effects on the mucosa resultant mucosal burns, (3) pressure necrosis as an result from prolonged local pressure on the tissue, and (4) local toxic effect due to absorption of substances. [10][11][12][13][14] In our study 3 safety pin were removed with forceps under anaesthesia, while 1 case the removal was done in outpatient department.…”

“…É curioso mencionar que existem estudos envolvendo intoxicação pela ingestão, introdução no canal auditivo e no septo nasal de pilhas do tipo botão por crianças, [19][20][21][22][23] realizadas por pesquisadores europeus e norte-americanos, com registro de casos desde a década de 60. [19][20][21] Isso se explica pelo pequeno tamanho dessas pilhas, que permite que sejam deglutidas com menor risco de sufocamento ou retenção no trato respiratório, como acontece com as pilhas comuns (do tipo AAA ou AA).…”

“…[19][20][21] Isso se explica pelo pequeno tamanho dessas pilhas, que permite que sejam deglutidas com menor risco de sufocamento ou retenção no trato respiratório, como acontece com as pilhas comuns (do tipo AAA ou AA). 20,21,23 Os efeitos clínicos dependem da composição química do produto, voltagem residual e do tempo de contato com o corpo (membranas, mucosas etc.). 20 O risco maior é a liberação dos componentes internos por corrosão do invólucro, provocando queimaduras (2º e 3º graus, perfuração da membrana/ mucosa e introdução de metais pesados no organismo).…”

“…The most common in children are seeds and parts of plastic toys. Button batteries have also been reported and may cause more problems if not removed early on 3 . Middle ear foreign bodies are rarer and usually happen after accidents, and because of their consequences, they are diagnosed quickly 4 .…”
