Extremity compartment syndrome and fasciotomy: a literature review.

W R Fry¹, M D Wade², R S Smith³, J A Asensio-Gonzales⁴.

Abstract

Trauma surgeons frequently encounter injured limbs at risk for compartment syndrome. This article reviews data regarding the pathophysiology of compartment syndrome, factors in measuring compartment pressures, thresholds for performing fasciotomies, and outcomes from the development of compartment syndromes and performing fasciotomies.

Entities: Disease

Keywords: Compartment pressures; Compartment syndrome; Extremity; Fasciotomy

Year: 2013 PMID： 26815540 DOI： 10.1007/s00068-013-0329-8
