A case is presented illustrating some of the basic principles in the development and repair of Volkmann's ischemic contracture following a supracondylar fracture. The etiology, initial signs, prevention, and possible treatments of the contracture are discussed. Early fasciotomy is the best treatment for impending contracture, while neurolysis with infarct excision, a flexor pronator slide, and tendon transfer can return much function following established contracture of the forearm.
本文介绍了一个病例,阐述了髁上骨折后Volkmann缺血性挛缩的发生和修复中的一些基本原则。文中讨论了挛缩的病因、初始体征、预防措施和可能的治疗方法。早期筋膜切开术是预防即将发生的挛缩的最佳治疗方法,而对于前臂已形成的挛缩,进行神经松解术并切除梗死组织、屈肌旋前肌滑动术和肌腱转移术可恢复大部分功能。
