Abstract
The case reported herein involves burns at the lower extremities leading to amputation followed by an MRSA infection with subsequent myocardial infarction and death in a patient with diabetes on chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. The burns were produced by the use of a warm-up pillow containing natural stones (grape seeds) heated by microwaves. This represents another of the strange potential hazards of serious microwave related injuries.
