Compartment syndrome: an unusual course for a rare disease.

Ali Moghtaderi1, Roya Alavi-Naini, Hadi Azimi.   

Abstract

We report a case of compartment syndrome of the left upper limb following hemorrhage due to Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever in a 45-year-old man. As far as we know, there is not such a report in the literature. We discuss clinical manifestations, electrophysiologic findings, differential diagnosis, and management of the patient. A high degree of awareness for an early diagnosis may participate to improve the poor prognosis.
