Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The ingestion of button batteries in children is an absolute emergency due to the potential complications related to various factors, including the charge of the battery and the time contact. It seems to be more frequent in recent years due to the multiplication of electronic objects. It is therefore necessary to sensitize the public in order to limit the risk of ingestion and to insist on urgent care to limit severe complications.
