The tourniquet syndrome of the thumb due to dressing with a rubber band in a pediatric patient.
Joint diseases and related surgery. 2023 August 22
Ischemia of an appendage caused by dressing, tourniquet or hair is a rare, but devastating clinical entity. A six-year-old girl presented to the emergency department with necrosis of her right thumb caused by compressive dressing for four days.

In conclusion, instead of waiting for full demarcation, timely surgical interventions may protect the fingers from being amputated.
