%X Six patients sustained a unique type of burn injury while working during the manufacture of cement in China. These patients suffered a combination of chemical and thermal injuries with extensive deep burns and inhalation injury, when they were involved in an accidental explosive leakage of cement from a manufacturing kiln. This report discusses the aetiology of the burn injury and the principles of treatment. All of these burns were preventable.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
