英文释义
名词 n.
-
A hand injury sustained during the cutting of an avocado, typically an incisional or stab wound of the nondominant hand.
— There has been an apparent increase in avocado related hand injuries. […] The mechanism of injury is usually a stabbing injury to the non-dominant hand as the knife slips past the stone, through the soft avocado fruit. Despite their apparent increased incidence, we could not find any cases in the literature which describe the “avocado hand”. We present a case of a 32-year-old woman who sustained a significant hand injury while preparing an avocado.
