Rare but dangerous foreign body of the external acoustic lacunae: the alkaline drum kits.

Ondzotto G & Kouassi B

À propos d'une observation de batteries alcalines dans les conduits auditifs externes, les auteurs soulignent que ces corps étrangers sont rares mais dangereux. Les mécanismes d'activité toxique de ces piles sont exposés, ainsi que les complications qu'elles engendrent et les principes de leur traitement.

About an observation in a 3 year-old child of the alkaline drum kits in the external acoustic Iacunae, the authors underline that they are rare but dangerous. The mechanisms of toxic activity of these piles are exposed, as well as the complications that they engender and the principles of their treatment.<br>The ablation should be carried out as quickly as possible. The excision is usually possible by natural pathways. However, attention should be paid to preventing post-operational stenosis by using gauze and administering careful local treatment.
