Asian Journal of Case Reports in Surgery · pp. 536–540 · Published 25 Oct 2023
Abstract
Mutilating hand injuries are rare in developed countries but it is not uncommon in developing countries. The ultimate goal of management is salvaging the injured hand with adequate functional status. Early radical debridement with intravenous antibiotics, good soft tissue handling and good rehabilitation is key to success for the management. We describe here a case of management of a mutilated hand injury in a resource constrained setting.
