Surgical treatment of Volkmann syndrome in Casablanca

Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon

Volkmann's syndrome is the translation of the sequelae of compartment syndrome of the limbs resulting in ischemic muscle retraction, which is most often associated with neurological damage to the limb.
In the event of therapeutic delay, the musculonervous lesions are irreversible. This is the stage of necrosis, a source of fibrous retraction where the limb assumes a characteristic position.
