Abstract

Burns due to contact with hot coal tar are challenging as it is very difficult to remove and there is no specified appropriate agent for the removal of tar. Hot tar burns usually occur as occupational hazard. This is a case series of our experience in treating 6 patients who sustained hot tar burns. Patients were treated with diesel, butter and Vaseline.

Keywords: Tar; Diesel; Butter; Vaseline.
