Résumé

This brief report is a retrospective review of three cases of iatrogenic digital ischemia and clinical outcome at six months. Hand injuries are one of the most common injuries that occur in the working population. Iatrogenic digital ischemia is a rare condition that can be avoided by proper wound management. After the correct initial treatment is provided, it is important to apply the wound dressing correctly to avoid iatrogenic trauma or ischemia. Currently, there is no consensus regarding the best treatment for these injuries. Our aim is to remind clinicians of this rare condition, and to highlight prevention and treatment strategies.
