Compartment syndrome of the leg after plantaris tendon harvest: a case report
1Philadelphia Hand Center, Philadelphia, PA 19107, USA.
Abstract:
A case of lower extremity compartment syndrome following plantaris tendon harvest for use as an upper extremity tendon graft is described. Compartment syndrome seems to be a rare complication after plantaris harvest, but expedient management is required to avert adverse sequelae. Exploration of the course of the plantaris tendon may be a viable alternative to the traditional lateral approach in attempting to reverse the condition.
