We present five cases of acute volar compartment syndrome developing as a complication of fractures of the distal radius. The patients were all males under the age of 50 years who sustained comminuted or displaced fractures of the distal radius. We suggest that this indicates an 'at risk' group. The interval between injury and the onset of symptoms of volar compartment syndrome varied between 12 and 48 hours. The diagnosis of each case was made clinically and confirmed at operation. With early extensive decompression full neurovascular recovery can be expected.
我们报告了5例因桡骨远端骨折并发症而发生的急性掌侧骨筋膜室综合征。患者均为50岁以下男性,均发生了桡骨远端粉碎性或移位骨折。我们认为这表明这是一个“高危”群体。掌侧骨筋膜室综合征损伤与症状出现之间的间隔时间为12至48小时不等。每例均通过临床诊断并在手术中得到证实。早期进行广泛减压有望实现神经血管的完全恢复。
