Acute Compartment Syndrome (ACS) is a serious medical condition that often results in high morbidity. ACS more commonly presents after substantial trauma in the extremities where compartment pressures can be measured. Here, we present an unusual case of a healthy man who presented with ACS of the thigh secondary to rupture of the gluteal cyst which was formed after multiple unsupervised testosterone injections. Our goal is to encourage a broad differential diagnosis while keeping limb threatening conditions and emergencies on top in patients complaining of leg pain and also to educate the patient population on safety concerns of unsupervised intramuscular injections.
急性筋膜室综合征（ACS）是一种严重的医学状况，常导致高发病率。ACS更常见于四肢遭受严重创伤后，此时可测量筋膜室内压力。在此，我们报告一例罕见病例，一名健康男性因臀肌囊肿破裂继发大腿急性筋膜室综合征，该囊肿是在多次未经监管的睾酮注射后形成的。我们的目的是鼓励进行广泛的鉴别诊断，同时在主诉腿痛的患者中优先考虑威胁肢体的情况和紧急情况，并就未经监管的肌肉注射的安全问题对患者群体进行教育。
