Compartment Syndrome Following Total Knee Arthroplasty: Clinical Results of Late Fasciotomy
Compartment syndrome after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a rare complication. Because of its rarity, it may be overlooked and misdiagnosed as peroneal nerve palsy or deep vein thrombosis. This misdiagnosis could have a profound impact on the patient's outcome. We report a case of a 77-year-old female who developed unilateral compartment syndrome in the calf after staged bilateral TKA at an o...

An elevation of the interstitial pressure in a closed osseofascial compartment results in compartment syndrome. This may be caused by a decrease in compartment volume or an increase in compartment contents. The gluteal compartment syndrome is rare. Because the gluteal region has a large volume, this compartment requires a massive increase in content to cause a compartment syndrome. Also, this c...
