High pressure injection injuries of the hand are rare, but very severe. The material injected acts in two ways: chemical irritation as a result of its toxicity, and physical distension of tissues of the finger, which are not normally distensible, as a result of the pressure of injection of the liquid which may reach 700 kg/cm2. The main complications were necrosis and infection ending in amputation in thirty percent of the cases. Often the conserved fingers suffered cold intolerance. Therefore, the gravity of this accident has led us to believe that it is the "most urgent of hand emergencies".
