[Chemical burns of the oral cavity and esophagus in infants].
The author has analyzed 482 sick children younger than 2 years of age. The burn degree was established with the help of narcotized esophagoscopy and by parameters of homeostasis. The washing out of the chemical substance was performed by oral introduction of 6-9 liters of water and the following probe-elimination from the stomach within the first 12-24 hours. Correction of disturbed homeostasis was fulfilled if necessary. The independent nutrition was started on the 2nd-3rd day. The method allowed treatment of the burned esophagus without bougieurage provided the patient was admitted to the hospital during the 1st day. Nineteen patients died (3.9%). Long-term results were favorable.
