Injury, 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.

Compartment Syndrome in Children
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1994The development of compartment syndrome is a well-recognized clinical entity. The diagnosis and management of compartment syndrome in the adult population is well established. Because of the difficulty with cooperation in physical examination of children with pain, the early recognition of compartment syndrome in this group of patients can be more ...

Compartment Syndrome of the Foot
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2022Foot compartment syndrome is an uncommon condition that should be recognized by all orthopedic surgeons. The clinical presentation is often less clear than other limb compartment syndromes and requires high clinical suspicion with a low threshold for direct measurement of compartment pressure.

The pelvic compartment syndrome
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 1992In the pelvic region three major compartments (gluteus medius-minimus compartment, gluteus maximus compartment, and iliopsoas compartment) can be distinguished from the smaller compartment of the tensor fasciae latae muscle. Pelvic compartment syndromes are rare. A clear history of trauma is often lacking.

The ‘silent’ compartment syndrome
Injury, 2009Intractable pain out of proportion to the injury sustained is considered to be the earliest and most reliable indicator of a developing compartment syndrome. We report 4 cases where competent sensate patients developed compartment syndromes without any significant pain.

Compartment Syndrome of the Hand
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2016Hand compartment syndrome has many etiologies; untreated, it has dire functional consequences. Intracompartmental pressure exceeding capillary filling pressure causes decreased tissue perfusion resulting in progressive ischemic death of compartment contents. Clinical findings can evolve.

Gluteal compartment syndrome [PDF]
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1994 Gluteal compartment syndrome is a rare disorder that most often occurs in conjunction with prolonged immobility after a sedative overdose but also may result from direct trauma. Patients present with localized tenderness, induration, and pain with passive flexion of the gluteal muscles.

Hand Clinics, 2018
Acute hand compartment syndrome is a potentially devastating condition a hand surgeon may be called on to evaluate and treat. This pathophysiologic cascade of events that begins with an inciting event progresses to increased intracompartmental pressure, tissue necrosis, and resultant morbidity and potentially mortality.

THE ABDOMINAL COMPARTMENT SYNDROME
Surgical Clinics of North America, 19961. ACS is caused by an acute increase in intra-abdominal pressure, usually as a result of intra-abdominal hemorrhage. 2. The most common and significant complications are respiratory and renal failure. 3. Abdominal decompression promptly reverses the complications of ACS. 4. Failure to recognize and treat ACS is inevitably fatal.
