Abstract:

 

Between the years of 1975-1980 there has been seen 6 anterior tibial syndrome in our clinic. In two cases for which fasiotomie was applied first 6 hours, the result was very good and fasiotomie places had ben closed by themselves. For the 3 cases postfasiatomie was applied with in 12-48 hours and among these 3 the, 2 there were seen 10 dorsal flexion loss and tor the third on there was seen ankle arthrodes and closed by ticrsch. For the patient who applied come 21 days after the accident, on amputation obove knee was necessary. As a result it can be said that for curing without waiting just after early diognosis if it the cases fasiotomie is necessary.

 

Kliniğimizde 1975-1980 yıllarında 6 anterior tibial kompartman sendromuna rastlanmıştır. Bunlardan ilk 6 saat içinde fasiotomi yapılan 2 vak'ada çok iyi netice alınmış, fasiotomi yerleri kendiliğinden kapanmıştır. 12-48 saat arasında fasiotomi yapılan 3 vak'adan. 2 sinde ayak bileğinde 10 lik dorsal fleksiyon kaybı, 1 vak$ada ayak bileği ankilozu görülmüş, yaralar her üçünde metiersch ile kapatılabilmiştir. 21 gün sonra gelen bir vak'a diz üstü amputasyonu yapılarak tedavi edilmiştir. Vak'aların erken teşhis edilerek, hemen fasiotomi uygulanmasının sekelsiz bir şifa için kaçınılmaz bir tedavi yöntemi olduğu kanaatine varılmıştır.
