Chondrocytes of the digital epiphyses, physes, and articular cartilage are particularly susceptible to the direct lethal effects of extremely low temperatures. We have treated a 13-year-old patient with chondral necrosis of the proximal interphalangeal joint following cryotherapy. Focal contact with the probe tip caused isolated, asymmetric physeal destruction.
指骨骨骺、生长板和关节软骨的软骨细胞对极低温度的直接致死作用特别敏感。我们治疗了一名13岁因冷冻疗法导致近端指间关节软骨坏死的患者。探头尖端的局部接触导致了孤立的、不对称的生长板破坏。
