The medial instep plantar fasciotomy
The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 1995A review of the anatomy, etiology, and conservative and surgical treatments of plantar fasciitis are presented and a simple surgical technique is introduced. The medial instep plantar fasciotomy was performed by the authors on 50 feet previously untreated by surgery (41 patients).

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 ...

Fasciotomy after trauma to the extremities
The American Journal of Surgery, 1988Over 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.

A method of fasciotomy wound closure
Injury, 1996The 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.

Fasciotomy for chronic compartment syndrome [PDF]
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1989 During 1977 and 1978, we operated on 34 patients with chronic anterior tibial compartment syndrome. Surgery consisted of subcutaneous fasciotomy of the anterior crural compartment under local anesthesia. Twenty-three patients were operated on bilaterally. The mean follow-up was 10 years. One patient was lost to follow-up, leaving a total of 56 legs for

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.

Four-quadrant fasciotomy is performed following revascularization for acute lower limb ischemia especially when the ischemia was prolonged and compartmental hypertension is present or expected. This chapter describes indications, essential steps, variations, and complications of this procedure.

Fasciotomies of the Limbs: How to do it?
Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 1998The compartment syndrome has been defined as an elevation of the interstitial pressure in a closed osteofascial compartment resulting in microvascular compromise. The only effective treatment is early decompression of the involved compartment. In acute conditions, this decompression can only be established if skin and fascia are incised over the ...

Compartment syndrome results from the combination of increased interstitial tissue pressure and the noncompliant nature of the fascia and osseous structures that make up a fascial compartment, causing microvascular compromise and subsequent muscle and nerve ischemia.

Fasciotomy: A call for proper placement
The Surgeon, 2011It is important that acute compartment syndrome is recognised and treated early. Treatment involves surgical decompression and it is imperative that this is performed in a timely and appropriate manner. The knowledge of plastic and orthopaedic surgery trainees of the safe technique for performing lower leg fasciotomy was examined.Survey of knowledge of
