Conservative Management of a High Pressure Injection Injury to the Hand

R. W. KENDRICK
J. COLVILLE

Belfast

A farm labourer suffered a high pressure injection injury to the palm of his right hand when the hydraulic drive of his tractor developed a leak. On the basis of the type of fluid injected, the clinical findings and the relatively favourable site of the injection, the patient was able to return to work in four weeks with a functional hand. It is suggested this type of management should be considered only in suitable cases where experienced care is available.
