JAIME-FAGUNDO, Juan Carlos et al. Emergencies in Hematology II. Extravasation of cytostatics. Rev Cubana Hematol Inmunol Hemoter [online]. 2012, vol.28, n.2, pp.120-129. ISSN 0864-0289.
Extravasation is one of the most serious complications during intravenous administration of cytostatics. In this paper we describe how an unintentional output of a cytostatic drug to the perivascular or subcutaneous space can occur during its administration, resulting from diverse factors. Its incidence is 0,1 to 6 %, according to different reports. There are dissimilar protocols for treatment and all agree that applying physical and pharmacological measures is the most important, as soon as each case require.
