Constricting bands. Manifestations of possible child abuse. Case reports and a review.
Clinical Pediatrics 1988 September
Bands around extremities may be from congenital, infectious, accidental, or purposeful causes. The older child may reveal the cause of self-inflicted or caregiver-inflicted banding. Banding in a nonverbal child will challenge the diagnostic acumen of the physician. Bands of unknown cause, or bands that may have been placed purposefully by a caretaker, must be reported as possible child abuse. Failure of the caretaker to seek help for the consequences of a band may suggest that the bands were intentionally placed. This failure may also be construed as medical neglect. Four cases of banding, which were referred to a child abuse program for consultation, are described.
