Kemal Gokkus, Ozel Antalya Memorial Hastanesi, Kepez Antalya, Turkiye, Tel. 0533 7435641 Email. kgokkus@yahoo.com Gelis Tarihi: 11.05.2011 • Kabul Tarihi: 07.06.2011 ABSTRACT Forearm compartment syndrome is the most important complication of the humeral supracondylar and forearm fractures. If left untreated, Volkmann’s ischemic contracture develops. Earthquake injuries by prolonged direct pressure of collapsed buildings on crushed extremities or industrial injuries (such as trapping in an industrial clamp) may result in acute compartment syndrome without fracture. Delayed diagnosis results in a disaster for both the patient and the physician, and may cause many medico legal problems. The diagnosis of compartment syndrome is essentially based on clinical experience. Particularly in compression and crush type injuries of the forearm with or without fracture, physicians should be suspicious about the compartment syndrome. In this paper we aim to report the management of a case of compartment syndrome as a complication of improperly tight long arm cast and crush injury of the right forearm.
