A penetrating abdominal injuries with evisceration in a child caused by an explosion of a mobile phone battery, is a rare form of accident. This is a case report on a 7 year-old boy who has been brought by his parents to the Emergency Room of the Regional Hospital Center of Lomé Commune (Togo), for penetrating abdominal injury with bowel evisceration at the left flank. The boy was playing outside the house while a mobile phone battery exploded out of a burning waste, and hit him on the left flank. The examination revealed an evisceration of about 50 cm on the left flank. He benefited from a laparotomy 8 h later with lesion repair. The post-operative was simple.
