Abstract
High-pressure injection injuries, although rare, are commonly discussed orthopaedic surgical emergencies. In many cases, high-pressure injection injuries can have detrimental effects on the patient. However, there are rare instances where surgical intervention may be more harmful than helpful. Here, we present a case report of a patient who sustained a high-pressure chemical refrigerant injection injury into the palm of his hand working on an air conditioning refrigeration unit. He was treated nonsurgically with excellent outcomes. The aim of this case report was to bring awareness to the potential nonsurgical management of high-pressure injection injuries in select circumstances.
