Acute compartment syndrome is a condition that requires an immediate diagnosis and surgical management. Compartment syndrome related to hematoma caused by minor trauma in hemodialysis patients is rarely reported.
We present two cases of hemodialysis patients diagnosed with compartment syndrome of the forearm due to hematoma caused by the disruption of blood vessels after a minor trauma. The removal of the hematoma and fasciotomy with adequate skin care significantly improved soft tissue heeling with no functional impairment.
A long-term history of hemodialysis may increase the vascular vulnerability and have the potential risk of disruption by minor trauma. When the blood vessel is disrupted, a hematoma is formed and necessitating emergent surgical intervention.
Surgeons should be aware of the potential risk of damage to blood vessels with minor trauma that results in the formation of a hematoma and compartment syndrome in hemodialysis patients.
急性骨筋膜室综合征是一种需要立即诊断和手术治疗的病症。血液透析患者因轻微创伤导致血肿相关的骨筋膜室综合征鲜有报道。
我们报告两例血液透析患者,因轻微创伤后血管破裂导致血肿,被诊断为前臂骨筋膜室综合征。清除血肿并行筋膜切开术,同时给予充分的皮肤护理,显著改善了软组织愈合,且未出现功能障碍。
长期血液透析病史可能会增加血管的脆弱性,存在因轻微创伤而破裂的潜在风险。血管破裂时会形成血肿,需要紧急手术干预。
外科医生应意识到,轻微创伤可能会损伤血液透析患者的血管,导致血肿形成和骨筋膜室综合征。
