Abstract
Respiratory complications in cases of corrosive intoxication are very common, pneumonia, respiratory tract injury until Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). the most common cause of mortality is the result of tracheal necrosis, oesophagal or gastric perforation followed by mediastinitis or peritonitis.
