Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2016
Acute compartment syndrome is a well-known complication of tibial fractures, yet it remains difficult to diagnose and the only effective treatment is surgical fasciotomy. Delayed fasciotomy is the most important factor contributing to poor outcomes, and as a result, treatment is biased towards performing early fasciotomy.

The Pathophysiology of the Acute Compartment Syndrome
Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 1998The acute compartment syndrome is a condition in which increased pressure within a limited space compromises the circulation and function of the tissues therein, resulting in tissue ischaemia, necrosis and nerve damage. This rise in tissue pressure originates in a decrease of the compartment size or increase of the intracompartmental volume by oedema ...

Acute Compartment Syndrome in the Athlete
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 2023In sports, acute compartment syndrome (ACS) develops following lower limb fracture, with subsequent high intracompartmental pressures and pain out of proportion to the physical examination. A prompt diagnosis is the key to a successful outcome in patients with ACS.

Pediatric Acute Compartment Syndrome
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2017Pediatric acute compartment syndrome (PACS) is a clinical entity that must be carefully differentiated from the adult version (ie, acute compartment syndrome). Healthcare providers must understand the variable etiologies of PACS, of which trauma is the most common but can also include vascular insult, infection, surgical positioning, neonatal phenomena,
