“…The management of medication-induced nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity in this case involved a combination of discontinuing the offending agents, initiating prednisolone therapy, and providing supportive care [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] . The favorable response to treatment and subsequent recovery of the patient's renal function further emphasize the importance of early recognition and intervention in drug-induced complications [10] .…”

“…Since the immune system is not well developed in infants, the ability to fight microorganisms is not well formed. Therefore, infections in infants will be much more dangerous than in adults [12] . With the least damage, the integrity of the skin will be severely affected, and the germs that live naturally on human's skin can easily enter the bloodstream and cause septicemia [13] .…”

Introduction and importance Peripheral venous catheterizations in newborns are associated with complications such as infections, phlebitis, vessel rupture and drug leaks or serum. Extravasation injury refers to the leakage of injected drugs from blood vessels causing damage to the surrounding tissues, skin necrosis, and sometimes amputation. Using tilapia fish skin (TFS) is one of the new strategies that have been used in wound management. Case presentation This case is a 36-week- and 4-day-old male fetus with a birth weight of 1600 g, height of 40 cm, and head circumference of 31 cm who was born to a 25-year-old mother by cesarean section at Mahzad Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Urmia, Iran. On the third day of hospitalization at neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), an extravasation injury occurred in the infant's left hand in size approximately 1 × 1 cm by peripheral catheter. Despite extensive intravenous antibiotic therapy and rinsing with normal saline, wound healing was not achieved. The necrotic area was bandaged by using of the tilapia skin. For this purpose, the area was first washed with normal saline for 5 min and then the tilapia skin was placed on the damaged skin for 10 days. After a month, the newborn's wound had completely healed. Clinical discussion Infants are more prone to extravasation injury than adults due to being more sensitive and thinner peripheral vessel walls. Conclusion This case illustrates that tilapia fish skin may be a suitable alternative to other temporary skin cover dressings in premature newborns suffering from extravasation injury.
