Acute Compartment Syndrome of the Lower Leg Using Navigated Endoprosthesis of the Knee
Article in several languages: English | deutschAuthors
Abstract
Acute compartment syndrome of the lower leg following computer navigated primary total knee arthroplasty is rare but potentially devastating. This could be triggered by a setting of the bicortical tibial navigation pin. It is essential to take care during the operation, and to implement close post-operative control, especially if there are risk factors or nerve blocks.
