Abstract
This case report presents the management of a severe crush injury in a 7-year-old male patient. The injury occurred following entrapment in a concrete mixer, resulting in extensive soft tissue trauma and vascular compromise. Prompt surgical intervention, including meticulous debridement and vascular reconstruction, was undertaken to optimize outcomes. Postoperative care involved serial debridement, negative pressure wound therapy, and subsequent skin grafting. Reconstructive procedures aimed to enhance hand function, yielding satisfactory outcomes at the three-month follow-up. This case underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in managing pediatric crush injuries and highlights the role of collaborative care in optimizing outcomes.
