Functional outcome of tibial fracture with acute compartment syndrome and correlation to deep posterior compartment pressure
AIM To measure single baseline deep posterior compartment pressure in tibial fracture complicated by acute compartment syndrome (ACS) and to correlate it with functional outcome. METHODS Thirty-two tibial fractures with ACS were evaluated clinically and the deep posterior compartment pressure was measured. Urgent fasciotomy was needed in 30 patients. Definite surgical fixation was performed e...
متن کاملCompartment syndrome after tibial plateau fracture☆
Fractures of the tibial plateau are relatively rare, representing around 1.2% of all fractures.

The case is reported of a 58...

This case is unique because she developed compartment syndrome in her left calf far from her injection site. Her toe’s tips gangrened in the course of her ailment. We hypothesized that the compartment syndrome might be produced by a probable intra-arteri...
