Injuries by marine animals present diverse types and forms. The responsible sea-animals resort to many zoological species, vertebrates and invertebrates, ranging from fishes to sponges. The vulnerant processes are also various: the wound being or not associated with envenomation. Venoms are different, according to the species: some ones are only histotoxic and have a local effect around the wound, others are viscerotoxic, giving a generalized and sometimes fatal intoxication. New Caledonia is an archipelago situated in particularly warm waters, and therefore is a privileged area to observe marine animals injuries. These accidents are more frequent in number in Noumea area, but mainly concern newcomers. In other areas, the insular population much in contact with sea because the food it harvests from it, provides many victims. From personal cases and from those recorded in dispensaries and in G. Bourret Hospital of Noumea, the authors describe the main syndromes: --traumas by non venomous marine animals, --traumas by venomous marine animals: --bites --pricks: single or few - multiple and urticant. For each of these syndromes, the responsible animals, their vulnerant apparatus and their modes of action, their symptomatologies and their treatment are given with a practical view.
海洋动物造成的伤害呈现出多样的类型和形式。肇事海洋动物涉及许多动物种类，包括脊椎动物和无脊椎动物，从鱼类到海绵动物不等。致伤过程也各不相同：伤口是否伴有中毒。毒液因物种而异：有些仅具有组织毒性，对伤口周围产生局部影响，其他的则具有内脏毒性，可导致全身性中毒，有时甚至是致命的。新喀里多尼亚是一个位于特别温暖海域的群岛，因此是观察海洋动物伤害的理想区域。这些事故在努美阿地区更为频繁，但主要涉及新来者。在其他地区，由于岛上居民从海洋获取食物，与海洋接触频繁，也有许多受害者。作者根据个人病例以及在努美阿药房和G. 布雷医院记录的病例，描述了主要的综合征：——无毒海洋动物造成的创伤，——有毒海洋动物造成的创伤：——咬伤，——刺伤：单发或少量——多发且伴有瘙痒。针对每种综合征，从实际角度给出了肇事动物、其致伤器具及其作用方式、症状表现和治疗方法。
