Abstract
Vaginal discharge is not an uncommon gynaecological problem and is most commonly infective in origin. Foreign bodies in vagina are the most common non-infective cause of vaginal discharge. We report a case of 5-year-old girl with button battery in vagina causing walled off collection along with vaginal discharge. Child needed a laparotomy due to the dense synechiae caused by the battery leak.
