Toe tourniquet syndrome refers to external, mechanical, circumferential constriction of the toes. We report a series of 4 infants with toe tourniquet syndrome from Saudi Arabia who presented during wintertime with very similar symptoms (approximately 48 hours of inconsolable crying and irritability), similar involved region (toes), and similar constricting agent (hairs). Immediate removal of the hair fibers was carried out in all patients, fortunately followed by fast healing with no signs of tissue necrosis. The prompt diagnosis and treatment of the condition were vital in attaining the good outcome and preventing ischemic complications.
趾部束带综合征是指脚趾受到外部机械性环形压迫。我们报告了来自沙特阿拉伯的4例趾部束带综合征婴儿病例，这些婴儿在冬季发病，症状非常相似（约48小时难以安抚的哭闹和易激惹），受累部位相似（脚趾），束带物相似（毛发）。所有患者均立即去除了毛发纤维，幸运的是随后均快速愈合，无组织坏死迹象。对该病症的及时诊断和治疗对于取得良好预后及预防缺血性并发症至关重要。
