A Rare Encounter Compartment Syndrome after High Saphenous Vein Ligation and Multiple Stab Avulsion Surgery
GAZI MEDICAL JOURNAL(2021)
摘要
High saphenous vein ligation (HSVL) with stripping and multiple stab avulsion (MSA) is usually a simple and straightforward technique used to treat the varicose vein. Recurrence, infection, hematoma, sural nerve injury are commonly seen complications. Here we report a rare presentation of compartment syndrome after HSVL and MSA. The diagnosis was a challenge initially as compartment syndrome following such procedure is extremely rare and have not been reported much. The patient was subsequently treated surgically with a four-compartment fasciotomy and recovered with partial foot drop. Regardless of its cause, compartment syndrome required prompt surgical treatment and a delay of more than 6 hours can lead to irreversible myoneural damage.
