摘要
An 11-month-old girl received 23 propofol anaesthetics for radiation treatment of a retinoblastoma. After the first two anaesthetics, a skin injury appeared on the pulp of the toes, where the light source of a pulse oximeter probe had been placed. During the remaining 21 anaesthetics the light source of the probe was placed over the nails, and no other skin lesions occurred. Examination of the equipment revealed no malfunction. Thermal and other possible causes of the skin injury are discussed.
