Extravasation injuries and emergency suction as treatment.
    Plastic and reconstructive surgery, 2000, Volume: 105, Issue:1

    To evaluate the efficiency of emergency suction in extravasation injuries of contrast medium, records of 11 patients treated for extravasation injuries with a combination of suction and saline washout were reviewed. All of the patients were treated in the first 2 hours after injury. The mean extravasated volume was 55 cc. There were no surgery-related complications, and all the patients experienced a relief of their preoperative pain. Except for two patients with blisters at admission, none of them suffered skin or soft-tissue necrosis. Mean time to complete healing was 9 days. Emergency suction therapy is safe and effective in preventing the skin and soft-tissue necrosis associated with extravasation injuries of hyperosmolar contrast medium.
