Abstract:
Based on a series of eight cases of severe extravasations of contrast medium injected under pressure, the authors suggest the use of liposuction for the elimination of the toxic agent and of the infiltrated cellular tissue. If applied promptly, this simple and semi-conservative treatment salvages the skin and prevents the development of scar sequelae of the soft tissues.
