Sea urchin spine injuries can range from minimal local trauma to chronic synovitis and arthritis, with long term morbidity. The abundance of these marine creatures in shallow sea water exposes the potential for injury of the extremities, especially the foot, knees, and hands. Early treatment is crucial to avoid future consequences of these injuries. We report a case of chronic synovitis of the foot in an adolescent, treated surgically two years after the initial insult, with complete resolution of symptoms.
海胆刺伤的程度从轻微的局部创伤到慢性滑膜炎和关节炎不等,并伴有长期的发病率。这些海洋生物在浅海水中数量众多,增加了四肢尤其是足部、膝盖和手部受伤的可能性。早期治疗对于避免这些损伤的后续后果至关重要。我们报告一例青少年足部慢性滑膜炎病例,在初次受伤两年后接受手术治疗,症状完全缓解。
