Abstract

[Objective]To report the surgical managements and their outcomes in high pressure injection injuries of the hand(HPIIH) in 5 cases.[Method]Open wound technique and series debridement in all 5 cases were performed.The residual skin defects following debridement were repaired with cross-finger island flap in 1 case.[Result]From November 2001 to November 2005,5 cases of HPIIH were treated in our department and the wounds were healed satisfactorily.The flap was survived.Amputation of the finger was executed in 1 case.[Conclusion]The time of the first debridement after injury determines the prognosis.Aggressive wound debridement is a key point for good wound healing in HPIIH.
