Chemical necrotizing fasciitis due to household insecticide injection: is immediate radical surgical debridement necessary?

abstract：:A sound understanding of the mechanisms determining percutaneous absorption is necessary for toxicological risk assessment of chemicals contacting the skin. As part of a programme investigating these mechanisms we have developed a physiologically based mathematical model. The structure of the model parallels the multi...
