Summary
A one year
old boy presented to the emergency department of the Bradford Royal infirmary
with Superglue in his mouth as a result of biting on a tube of glue that lay on
the floor. His lips and upper teeth were stuck together and we removed the glue
by applying margarine. Superglue is a cyanoacrylate resin that can bond to
organic and inorganic matter. There have been a few reports of removal of
Superglue from various parts of the body or of the toxic nature of
cyanoacrylate in contact with mucous membranes. details >>
