Sites of CS
Can develop anywhere a skeletal muscle is
surrounded by a fascia.
Bone :
-Ulna
-Radius
Forearm muscle
Anterior compartment
Latral compartment
Posterior compartment
Cont’
Latral compartemnt :
1-brachioradialis,
Superficial layer :
1-extensor digitorum,
2-extensor digiti minimi,
3- extensor carpi ulnaris,
4- anconeus
Deep layer :The deep layer of the posterior compartment of the forearm consists of
five muscles: supinator, abductor pollicis longus, extensor pollicis brevis, extensor
pollicis longus, and extensor indicis
Cont’
Bones :
Tibia
2) Paresthesia
3) Pallor
4) Paralysis
5) Pulselessness
Pain:
Severe, deep, constant, and poorly localized pain
Difficult to interpret

1-Fasciotomy:
Double-incision approach or Single-incision approach
2- Fabiluctomy
Fasciotomy in the leg
It is the treatment of choice
Aimed to decompress the ICP for the four
compartments
Could be single incision “ perifibular” or
double-incisions “ anterolateral and
postereomedial”
Double-incisions
1. Anterolateral:
To decompress anterior and lateral compartments
15 cm longitudinal and halfway between fibula and tibial shin
Open skin and subcutaneous
Horizontal cut 2cm to visualize the intramuscular septum
“superficial peroneal nerve”
Decompress the anterior compartment first
To decompress the lateral compartment the incision is directed to
the fibular shaft. Distally scissors directed toward lateral
mallulous and proximally toward fibular head
Double-incisions
2. Posterolateral
To decompress superfecial and deep posterior compartments
15 cm longitudinal and 2cm posterior to the medial tibial edge
Slightly distal to the anterolateral incision
Open skin and subcutaneous
Horizontal cut to visualize the septum between deep and
superficial compartments
Decompress the superficial compartment first
To decompress the deep compartment initiate distally
Double-incisions
Things to take care :
In anterolateral incision take care about superficial peroneal
nerve
In posteriomedial incision take care about saphenous nerve and
vein which are located in the posterior media aspect of the tibia
Be generous in the incision and make sure you release the fascia
Forearm Fasciotomy
Volar-Henry approach
Include a carpal tunnel
release
Release lacertus
fibrosus and fascia
Protect median nerve,
brachial artery and
tendons after release
Forearm Fasciotomy
Rhabdomyolysis - Acidosis
Hyperkalemia - DIC and sepsis
Myoglobinuric renal failure
ARDS
Loss of limb
Death (sepsis-MOF)
Complications related to CS
Late Sequelae
Volckmann’s contracture
Weak dorsiflexors
Claw toes
Sensory loss
Chronic pain
Amputation
Volckmann’s contracture
