Blast trauma is multidimensional injury; the type of the blast injury may lead to different systems involvement as it often combines blast, penetrating blunt, and burn mechanisms in the same casualty. Primary blast injuries are caused by the interaction of the blast wave with the body and are therefore a type of non–penetrating trauma. They are more common in war, terrorism and cooking, but cell phone blast injuries are of late increasingly common causing variety of injuries involving different parts, organs, systems of the person with short term and long term effects on that person, family and community. These injuries pose unique triage, diagnostic and management challenges. Cell phone blast injuries are more common in Asia producing non–branded replacement batteries with attractive low price.In the literature, there are mainly facial burn cases due to mobile phone battery explosion. On the other hand, there are very few cases of mobile battery blast causing colonic perforation after explosion which this case elucidates.We aim to highlight potential hazard of lithium ion battery injuries and its implications on immediate care and surgical management.
