The mechanism of pathological changes developing in tissues in frostbite is diverse and varies within a very wide range, not only in different forms of local lesions (from the action of dry cold, "trench" and "immersion" foot, contact frostbite), but also in different areas of the lesion in the same victim. Probably, the pathogenesis of frostbite in different climatic regions is also dissimilar.
