| dc.description.abstract | A case of gangrene of the hand following inadvertent intra-arterial injection of a pyrazole derivative (Tomanol) is presented. Gangrene of the hand and superficial sloughing of the distal arm necessitated a forearm amputation. Because of the serious sequelae, precautions must be taken to avoid inadvertent intra-arterial injections and due consideration must be given to the anatomical variations of the brachial artery and its branches in the cubital fossa. | |
