Vape blows hole in teen’s jaw
Another case to add to vaping's volatile reputation
A teen in the US breathed in on an e-cigarette and blew a hole in his jaw, when the device exploded in his face, puncturing his chin and shattering his mandible and teeth.
The 17-year-old presented to an ED two hours later, where a CT revealed a comminuted and displaced mandibular fracture with disruption of several lower incisors.
