Abstract:
Compartment syndrome occurs when the pressure inside a closed fascial compartment increases to a level that compromises the blood supply to the structures. Untreated compartment syndrome commonly leads to muscle necrosis, limb amputation, and, if it is severe, which is seen in large compartments, renal failure and death may occur. We discussed MRI findings of crural compartment syndrome based on the case series.
