Prophylactic fasciotomy in a porcine model of extremity trauma

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Research, 2015
Background: Extremity injury, with concomitant hemorrhagic shock, can result in ischemia–reperfusion injury and the formation of compartment syndrome requiring fasciotomy. As the benefit of prophylactic fasciotomy is unclear, the objective of this study

A cadaveric model of anterior compartment leg syndrome: Subcutaneous minimally invasive fasciotomy versus open fasciotomy

open access: yesOrthopaedics and Traumatology: Surgery and Research, 2019
Because of disabling sequelae of open fasciotomy in anterior compartment syndrome (ACS) of the leg, we wanted to describe and validate a cadaveric model of ACS.

Fasciotomy

Archives of Surgery, 1981
Fourty-eight fasciotomies performed for conventional indications were analyzed, focusing primarily on the reliability of clinical diagnosis and the effectiveness of the operative technique. Decompression was accomplished immediately after hospital admission or arterial repair in 27 patients and deferred until the appearance of signs and symptoms in 21 ...

Percutaneous Fasciotomy for Dupuytren's Contracture

Journal of Hand Surgery, 2011
Needle aponeurotomy (percutaneous needle fasciotomy) for Dupuytren's contracture can be performed in the office setting with local anesthesia. It is simple and inexpensive and has a low complication rate and rapid recovery compared with open fasciectomy. It can usually be repeated safely and effectively for recurrent disease.

Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 1994
Endoscopic plantar fasciotomy (EPF) is an efficacious, minimally invasive procedure for the surgical intervention of heel spur syndrome/plantar fasciitis. Because of the minimal trauma involved with the technique, patients are able to return to full activity much quicker than with traditional "open" heel spur surgery techniques.

Fasciotomy after trauma to the extremities

The American Journal of Surgery, 1988
Over a 9-year period, fasciotomy for presumed compartmental syndromes after trauma was performed in 25 upper extremities and 100 lower extremities in 122 patients. This procedure was most commonly indicated after vascular injuries in the lower extremities. Twenty percent of patients underwent fasciotomy before vascular repair.

Closure of Fasciotomy Wounds

Journal of Hand Surgery, 1997
The closure of fasciotomy wounds creates problems for patient and surgeon alike. Split thickness skin grafting results in unsightly and insensate wounds and often requires general anaesthesia and prolonged inpatient care. We describe an improvement of a previously reported technique which is as effective as proprietary medical devices currently ...

Upper Arm Fasciotomy

Journal of Hand Surgery, 1996
The incisions used for fasciotomy of the upper arm are re-appraised in the light of recent advances in the understanding of the vascular anatomy of the integument of the upper arm, and a new approach is described.

A method of fasciotomy wound closure

Injury, 1996
The indications and methods of fasciotomy for acute compartment syndrome have been well documented. There has not been much attention paid to postoperative care, especially the management of the open wound produced. The common practice is to cover the wound with a split-skin graft if there is any difficulty with attempted closure.
