Thermal burns of the larynx after swallowing hot beverages are extremely rare among adults. Most reported cases have occurred among young children. We report the case of a male adult who, upon swallowing hot milk from a bottle, experienced a burn of the larynx affecting the epiglottis and surrounding supraglottic structures. Since dyspnea usually occurs within hours of a burn of the larynx, the importance of airway management in this case is emphasized.
成人吞咽热饮后发生喉部热烧伤极为罕见。大多数报告的病例发生在幼儿中。我们报告一例成年男性病例,该患者在吞咽奶瓶中的热牛奶后,喉部发生烧伤,累及会厌及周围的声门上结构。由于呼吸困难通常在喉部烧伤后数小时内出现,因此强调了该病例中气道管理的重要性。
