摘要：
Hydrogen peroxide is commonly used for the decontamination of wounds.(1) We report a case of a probable venous oxygen embolism resulting in cardiovascular collapse following irrigation of a necrotic breast wound with hydrogen peroxide. We discuss the differential diagnosis, mechanism of oxygen embolism and question the relative advantages versus disadvantages of using hydrogen peroxide for wound decontamination.
