“…Ozkaya et al 9 also showed the severity of tandoori burns, supporting our study. In their study, it was stated that while amputation rates due to tandoor burns were 9%, it was 1.2% in other types of burns.…”

“…Although we have not come across directly related literature information on the epidemiology of tandoor ovens, the chemical analysis of biofuels used in the tandoor, and the tandoor burns, there are indirect studies on tandoori and studies on the effect of different biofuels. 2,6-9…”

“…3). [8][9][10][11] In parallel with the literature, in our study, the mean age in tandir burn group was found to be 12.98±22.09, and the rate of patients under the age of 10 was found to be 78.1%. On the other hand, the mean age in the flame burn group was found to be 27.07±18.06 (0-76).…”

“…The number of female cases in other tandir burn studies also supports this idea. [8][9][10][11] On the other hand, in the flame burn group, 78.7% and statistically significantly more male cases were present in line with burn etiology (gasoline, diesel fuel, flammable gas and explosives).…”

BACKGROUND:Because internal temperature of tandir may reach up very high levels, tandir burns, which is one of flame burns, may cause more morbidity and mortality than those of other flame burns. Therefore, we aimed to compare tandir burns with other flame burns in the present study. METHODS:In this study, we compared tandir burns with other flame burns concerning age, gender, total burn surface area, burn depth, hospitalization times, hospitalization duration, surgical procedures performed, wound culture results, burn localization and mortality. RESULTS:Tandir burn patients were treated in the hospital for an average of 27.6±9.5 days, while non-tandir burn patients were treated for a period of 16.5±12.5 days. A significant difference was found between the hospitalization periods of the two groups (p<0.001). Tandir burn, which is a type of flame burn, affects the women and children much more frequently than other flame burns (p=0.0001), causes deeper burns (p=0.0001), which requires more surgical intervention (p=0.0001) and causes more frequent wound site infection. CONCLUSION:We think that it would be beneficial to treat high-temperature burns, such as tandir burns, as a separate group from other flame burns. We believe that further studies to be conducted in this field will bring new approaches to the treatment of tandir burns.
