Skin burns from prolonged exposure to wet cement

R Kelsey and T Alvey
Welborn Baptist Hospital, Evansville, IN., USA.

A review and typical case history of a patient with skin burns caused by prolonged exposure to wet cement was presented. This case is similar to other reported cases in the length of exposure, prolonged healing time, and typical scar formation. Burns from prolonged exposure to wet cement can result in potentially devastating long-term sequelae. The dermatologic hazards of wet cement are well recognized; however, many patients have suffered cement burns from working in wet cement. Product education and proper protection appear to be the best preventive measures.
