Rougé and coll [ 6 ] propose, according to an experimental model, a histological classification of vascular lesions following electrification: • stage 0: no vascular lesion; • stage 1: small changes in the wall, often at the level of the intima, with edema or even detachment of endothelial cells, aggregation of blood along the wall; these lesions are localized in apparently healthy tissue in the vicinity of burned areas; • stage II: more or less significant alterations of the vascular wall with necrosis, inflammatory infiltrate and thrombosis; these lesions are located in the peripheral areas of the burns; • stage III: coagulation and necrosis of the entire vascular wall, located in the center of the burns.
