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

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 ...

Chronic compartment syndrome (CCS) is a possible explanation of leg pain in the exercising patient. This review article provides background information on CCS, focusing on its most frequent site of occurrence, i.e., the lower leg. Clinical history, diagnosis, compartmental tissue pressure measurement, conservative therapy, surgical intervention ...

Abdominal compartment syndrome.
Minerva chirurgica, 2010Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) are frequently encountered in critically ill patients and carry a high morbidity and mortality risk. Despite these facts, IAH/ACS are still overlooked by many physicians and therefore timely diagnosis is not made and treatment is often inadequate. All clinicians should be aware
