Introduction: Burns are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in developing countries with limitations in healthcare systems.

The most frequent causes of burns were flame exposure and gas explosions, mostly involving 20%−39% of the total body surface area (TBSA). Patients with inhalationtrauma and comorbidities, such as diabetes mellitus or smoking habits, experienced longer hospital stays. Conclusion: Most moderate-tosevere burn injuries in this study occurred among factory workers and entrepreneurs as a result of open flame and gas explosions, indicatingthe need to strengthen occupational safety and burn prevention efforts in the workplace.
