Surgical treatment of compartment syndrome

Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon

Compartment syndrome is a serious condition that occurs when there is an increase in pressure that occurs within a muscle compartment or compartment. This causes a decrease in the vascularity of the tissue and muscle distress. Over time, this can create edema which decreases the arterial blood supply to an organ.
