PURPOSE: To report outcomes of intra-arterial thrombolysis versus non-thrombolytic management of severe frostbite with respect to digital amputation rates and hospital length of stay (LOS).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seventeen patients with severe frostbite were identified from 2000 to 2017. Eight (47%) patients with mean age of 40 years underwent intra-arterial thrombolysis and served as the treatment group. Nine (53%) patients with mean age of 53 years received non-thrombolytic management and served as the control group. 2/8 (25%) treatment and 3/9 (33%) control patients had underlying vascular comorbidities (p = 0.25). Number of digits at risk, duration of thrombolysis, thrombolytic agents used, digits amputated, hospital LOS, and complications were recorded.
RESULTS: Seven upper and nine lower extremities for a total of 80 digits were at risk in the treatment cohort. Eight upper and 12 lower extremities for a total of 100 digits were at risk in the control group. Mean duration of thrombolysis was 26 h. All treatment patients received tissue plasminogen activator in addition to systemic heparin. 4/16 (25%) limbs received intra-arterial alprostadil, 2/16 (13%) received nitroglycerin, and 2/16 (13%) received nicardipine. 12/80 (15%) treatment digits and 77/100 (77%) control digits required amputation (p = 0.003). Average hospital LOS was 14 days in the treatment group and 38 days in the control group (p = 0.011). No major complications occurred in the treatment group; however, 2/9 (22%) patients in the control group required extended hospitalizations secondary to amputation complications.
CONCLUSIONS: Intra-arterial thrombolysis reduces digital amputation rates and hospital LOS in the setting of severe frostbite.
