injections between these creases usually result in more super­ficial wounds.
l Radiopaque substances or free air can be localized using radio-
graphs (Figure 32-1).
l Start IV antibiotics to include a first-generation cephalosporin
and an aminoglycoside to prevent secondary infection.
l Liver function, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine
should be monitored because some injectables are toxic to the liver and cause hematuria.
l Consult a hand surgeon immediately for evaluation and man-
agement.
Definitive Treatment (Refer to Hand Specialist)
l Urgent surgical debridement (preferably within 6 hours of
injury) might be required.

l Neurovascular injury and tissue necrosis can be severe enough
to necessitate amputation.
Potential Problems
l Neurovascular injury, necrosis, fibrosis, or infection can neces-
sitate amputation.
l Secondary infection can occur.

RING AVULSION INJURIES
Injury to the ring finger from a ring avulsion is not only prob­lematic cosmetically, the function and sensibility of the ring finger are important for gripping and holding objects. These injuries range from superficial soft tissue injuries to complete degloving of the soft tissue from bone.
Mechanism of Injury
l The ring catches on a hook, basketball net, or another object
and strangulates the finger; or the ring is too tight because of swelling (Figure 33-1).
l The same type of injury can be caused if the finger is caught by
a string or rope (eg, sailing).
l Classification is based on vascular damage:
t Class I: adequate circulation t Class II: inadequate circulation (requires vascular repair) t Class III: complete degloving (requires replantation)
l If the ring is still present, remove it (Appendix E). l Determine whether there is compromised perfusion:
t Capillary refill t Digital Allen test t Doppler digital vessels
l Recognize that digital vessel disruption can occur, even with-
out skin laceration.

l Assess extent and location of additional soft tissue injury
(nerves, vessels, tendons, bone).
l Radiographs: AP, lateral, and oblique radiographs of the digit
are needed to determine whether a fracture, dislocation, or sub­luxation occurred.
l Keep the digit warm with gentle irrigation of the wound and
wrap it in gauze soaked in warm saline.

l Do not ligate or cauterize digital vessels before speaking with a
hand surgeon; this will hinder microvascular repair.
l Even if the injury is Class I, leave the skin laceration open to
prevent constriction of blood vessels.
Definitive Treatment (Refer to Hand Specialist)
l These injuries are often worse than they appear. Even if circula-
tion appears to be adequate, arterial thrombosis and progres­sive ischemia is possible, and the patient should be seen by a hand surgeon as soon as possible for complete evaluation.
l If perfusion is compromised (or there is any question of it), call
a hand surgeon immediately; this may require urgent vascular repair.
Potential Problems
l Progressive ischemia from vascular disruption can necessitate
amputation.
l Even with urgent surgical treatment, patients might have
altered sensation (paresthesias, hyperesthesias) or motion (ten­don scarring, joint fusion, skin contracture).

GUNSHOT WOUNDS
Because of the compact tissue volumes and intricate anatomy in the hand, gunshot wounds to the hand can cause devastating inju­ries. Often, multiple structures are injured, and the treatment is com­plicated by balancing a need for immobilization of some injuries (eg, fractures), with a need for early motion of others (eg, tendon repairs). Thorough assessment of potentially injured structures and appropri­ate initial treatment are the goals of the acute management period.
Mechanism of Injury
l Gunshot wounds cause tissue damage because of both penetra-
tion and blast injury.
l Extent of damage is proportional to energy of injury: small
handguns or BB guns are “low energy,” while rifles and larger caliber handguns are “high energy” and tend to cause more damage.
l Shotguns disperse pellets and other debris, and usually cause
the worst injuries.
l Determine entry and exit sites of bullet, and use possible tra-
jectory to anticipate structures that might have been injured (Figure 34-1).
l Note areas of skin loss or laceration. l A thorough exam will help identify vascular compromise (do
not miss a palmar arch or other vessel injury), tendon injuries, or nerve deficits.
