Osteofascial Compartment Syndrome
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2011The free fibula osteocutaneous flap has been widely used in the reconstruction of facial bone, especially the mandible. Donor-site morbidity for free fibula osteocutaneous flap is generally considered to be low and minor. However, a severe and rare complication, osteofascial compartment syndrome (OCS), should be paid more attention to after the ...

Acute compartment syndrome is a serious complication of injury. It occurs when raised pressure within a closed osteofascial compartment compromises the circulation and function of tissues within the compartment. Most cases are caused by fracture. The largest group are tibial diaphyseal fractures, followed by soft tissue injury, crush syndrome, distal ...

Extremity Compartment Syndromes
2016All surgeons caring for patients with trauma to the extremities or practicing vascular surgery must be able to recognize and surgically treat compartment syndromes. Compartment syndrome (CS) results from a variety of etiologies with the final common pathway being increased compartmental pressure that exceeds the arterial inflow with resultant ischemia ...

Gluteal compartment syndrome (GCS) is a rare condition but undiagnosed it can be fatal. Because only a few cases are reported, the condition is not well characterized. This is a case report of a 56-year-old male who developed GCS most likely due to surgery and post-operative immobilization. We would like to increase the attention on GCS with respect to

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2001
FCS is a recognized clinical entity that has few consistent clinical signs except tense swelling. A high degree of clinical suspicion is necessary to provide appropriate treatment. Invasive direct pressure monitoring is needed to diagnose FCS. High-energy injuries are known to cause FCS, but individual risk factors, such as prolonged venous occlusion ...

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1996
Presented is a case of a thoracic gunshot wound resulting in descending thoracic aortic and biventricular cardiac injuries. Successful management of these wounds allowed the development of an unusual and previously undescribed complication of thoracic trauma--thoracic compartment syndrome.

On physical examination his blood pressure was 130/ 80; pulse rate was 100 beats per minute; temperature 37.2 C (99 F), and he was alert and oriented. He had moderate weakness of grasp and dorsiflexion of the left hand. Sensation and deep tendon reflexes of the upper extremities were normal.
