Transcutaneous oxygen pressure-guided prophylactic fasciotomy and negative pressure wound therapy for contrast extravasation injury of the hand: A case report
This may be the first reported case of contrast medium extravasation injury in the hand managed with TcPO₂-guided fasciotomy. TcPO₂ and forward-looking infrared thermography may serve as alternative noninvasive tools to support early decision-making for fasciotomy in cases where traditional clinical signs are absent. Early intervention based on perfusion metrics may prevent irreversible ischemic complications.
