Abstract
Epoxy resins has been used as a adhesive material in industry. Toxic effects for epoxy resin are known as respiratory, dermatologic, ophthalmologic and allergic symptoms. Ingestion of epoxy resin has been known to induce moderate toxic effect, but reports are very rare. Toxic injury due to ingestion in gastrointestinal tract is usually caused by suicidal attempt or incidental ingestion in young ages and alcoholics. Herein, we report a case of diffuse mucosal injury in upper gastrointestinal tract caused by thermal injury from epoxy resin with a review of relevant literatures.
