2010A compartment syndrome exists when increased pressure in a closed anatomic space threatens the viability of surrounding tissue. When this occurs in the abdominal cavity, the impact on end-organ function within and outside the cavity can be devastating.

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1995Abdominal compartment syndrome is still a controversial entity. We report on a patient who developed the classical hemodynamic, respiratory, and renal changes of abdominal compartment syndrome after surgical intervention for blunt abdominal trauma. A decompressive laparotomy improved the situation dramatically.
