description Button battery (BB) ingestion is a preventable pediatric health hazard with important morbidity and mortality due to complications. We present 3 pediatric patients with a complicated course after BB ingestion and discuss current guidelines. Urgent endoscopic removal is necessary for every BB impacted in the esophagus. A new strategy before endoscopic removal is the administration of honey or sucralfate. During endoscopy, rinsing the esophageal mucosae with acetic acid can neutralize the alkalic environment and prevent late complications. Prevention of ingestion needs to be pursued by increasing awareness and changing legislation of packaging of BB.
