Formik Asit’e Bağlı Kimyasal Yanık: Olgu Sunumu

Formik asit sanayide ve giderek artan oranda tarımda kullanılan bir organik asittir. Kuagulasyon nekrozu oluşturarak doku hasarı oluşturur. Formik asit yanıklarında asidoz, hemoliz, hemoglobinüri gibi sistemik toksisite belirtileri gelişebilir. Biz bu yazıda formik asite bağlı yanık olgusunu sunarken kimyasal yanıklara yaklaşımdan kısaca bahsedeceğiz

Chemical Burn Due To Formic Acid: Case Report
