摘要：

A case of liquid propane cold injury is described. This injury was produced by evaporative heat loss, without ignition, from skin and underlying tissues. The cutaneous appearance was that of a flame burn but underlying deep tissue damage was present. Acute vascular compromise and progressive wound sepsis were complications which required surgical intervention. A liquid propane animal model was created which defined the pathophysiology of the clinical injury. The potential for this injury exists wherever volatile liquified gases are used. © Williams & Wilkins 1979. All Rights Reserved.
