dc.description.abstractChemical burns account for a small percentage of admissions to burn units. Wet cement is a poorly recognized cause of chemical burn. As the construction industry is growing, individuals will likely have more contact with this material and be more prone to its harmful effects. Wet cement can cause severe full-thickness burns with prolonged contact, but this property is not well known among professional users. The lack of information about the potential hazards of wet cement makes it an important problem that must be considered more seriously as a risk factor for chemical burn. Increasing public knowledge of the necessary preventive measures is crucial for avoiding this type of chemical burn injury. Here, we report a case with full-thickness burn that occurred while working with wet cement without proper protection.en_US
