TY - JOUR PY - 2005// TI - Mortal hot spring burns: report of two cases JO - Journal of burn care and rehabilitation A1 - Coruh, Atilla SP - 288 EP - 290 VL - 26 IS - 3 N2 - This article describes two children who received deep partial and full-thickness mortal immersion scald burns while visiting a hot spring. The prevention of such accidents is most important, including the education of children and family members on the potential hazards inherent at these resorts. In addition, elevated retaining walls with closed upper surfaces of the pools should be reconstructed to avoid children slipping accidentally into hot springs.
