Exposure of the skin to nitrous oxide, a liquified gas stored under pressure in a cylinder, can occur in anaesthesiologists and in those involved in recreational misuse of the gas. A case is reported of a man who presented to the emergency department after sniffing nitrous oxide and sustaining frostbite injury to his left cheek. Conservative management of this injury allowed spontaneous separation of the necrotic tissue and healing of the granulating wound by contraction.
皮肤接触一氧化二氮（一种在气瓶中加压储存的液化气体）的情况可能发生在麻醉医生以及那些滥用该气体进行消遣的人身上。本文报告了一例病例，一名男子在吸入一氧化二氮后前往急诊科就诊，其左脸颊遭受了冻伤。对该损伤采取保守治疗，坏死组织自行分离，肉芽创面通过收缩实现愈合。
