Two cases of subcutaneous emphysema which developed after minor trauma are presented. One patient had a wound on the tip of the olecranon, and the other an interdigital wound. Both cases were misdiagnosed as gas gangrene, and treated with surgical revision and antibiotics. Neither necrosis nor bacteria were found. Both cases of emphysema were believed to be due to the pumping effect of the movement of the limbs.
本文报告两例轻微创伤后发生皮下气肿的病例。一例患者鹰嘴尖端有伤口，另一例患者指间有伤口。两例均被误诊为气性坏疽，并接受了手术清创和抗生素治疗。未发现坏死及细菌。两例气肿均被认为是由于肢体活动的抽吸作用所致。
