Electrical burns are among the most devastating types of burns, with wide-ranging injuries. They can sometimes occur in the context of fishing, usually involving high voltages. The authors present the case of a 59-year-old-man who suffered a sports accident during a fishing competition, with the formation of an electrical arc due to proximity of the fishing rod and high voltage cables. He presented burns affecting 3% of TBSA, third degree deep burns on trunk and left hand; no signs of cardiac injury. He was admitted to our Burn Unit for monitoring, care dressing and surgical treatment; complete wound healing was achieved after 24 days. Due to its relatively small share among burns, published data on electrical injuries and fishing remain scarce, and differ in patient collectives due to infrastructural or environmental differences. The authors are not aware of published specific reports on electrical burns in sports fishing practice, like the case here presented. The authors want to alert for potential medical, social and economic consequences of this type of sports accidents that could be entirely avoidable with some preventive measures.
电烧伤是最具毁灭性的烧伤类型之一，损伤范围广泛。它们有时会在钓鱼过程中发生，通常涉及高电压。作者报告了一名59岁男性的病例，该患者在钓鱼比赛中遭遇体育事故，因鱼竿靠近高压电缆而形成电弧。他的烧伤面积占体表面积的3%，躯干和左手为三度深度烧伤；无心脏损伤迹象。他被收入我们的烧伤科进行监测、护理换药和手术治疗；24天后伤口完全愈合。由于电烧伤在烧伤中所占比例相对较小，关于电损伤与钓鱼的已发表数据仍然很少，并且由于基础设施或环境差异，患者群体也有所不同。作者未发现有关于体育钓鱼实践中电烧伤的具体报道，就像这里所呈现的病例一样。作者希望提醒人们注意这类体育事故可能带来的潜在医疗、社会和经济后果，而采取一些预防措施这些后果是完全可以避免的。
