title: Liposuction and extravasation injuries in ICU.
abstract: Liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical technique, occasionally used to minimize the risk of devastating soft tissue necrosis following extravasation of noxious substances. Anaesthetists and intensive care physicians frequently use agents that may cause serious tissue injury if extravasated. Therefore, knowledge on how to manage this complication is important. We present two cases of percutaneous extravasation of noxious agents in intensive care patients and discuss their subsequent management.
