| Abstrakt: | Today's physician, seeing patients with a nontraumatic acutely swollen hand, must consider the possibility of drug abuse. The hand problem may be infection, Volkmann ischemia, skin bullae due to barbiturate overdose, or endarteritis due to intra-arterial injection. Cases illustrating the spectrum of drug-related acute hand problems seen in a county hospital and reported in the literature are presented. |
