Tourniquet syndrome caused by metallic bands: a new tool for removal.
Annals of Emergency Medicine 1982 July
Reported are two cases of metallic constricting devices presenting to our emergency department. A 40-year-old man was unable to remove a steel ring from his engorged penile shaft after autostimulation, and a 22-year-old man riveted a metallic nut onto his right index finger proximal to his distal interphalangeal joint. Both metallic devices were successfully removed by a new, easily managed, and readily available tool called the "Dremel Moto-Tool Kit" Cat. #280. Constricting devices around digits or the penis are not uncommon problems. Because of the inherent dangers and sequelae of delay in treatment, it is imperative that the removal of these devices is expedited.
