Abstract

Compartment syndrome, occurring rarely after prolonged surgery in the lithotomy position, is a clinical statement, which may result in catastrophic complications. Compartment syndrome, which is commonly seen after major pelvic surgery is reported most commonly after prolonged urological procedures with an estimated incidence of 1 in 500 cases. [1]. Compartment syndrome has similar clinical findings with deep venous thrombosis, which is common in clinical practice of cardiovascular surgeons. It is important to make differential diagnosis of compartment syndrome to avoid the complications that are preventable with early diagnosis. In our case, at first our diagnosis was deep venous thrombosis because of the malignity story, and similar clinical findings. However, as a result the compartment syndrome was the current diagnosis. We want to present a case of compartment syndrome , which must be keep in mind in the diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis, in the light of current literature.

Özet

Kompartman sendromu litotomi pozisyonunda yapılan uzamış cerrahi girişimler sonucunda nadir olarak görülen ve katastrofik sonuçlar ile sonlanabilen bir klinik tablodur. Litotomi pozisyonu uygulanan tüm cerrahi girişim türlerinde görülebilen bu tablonun ürolojik girişimler sonrası prevalansı 1/500 dür.[1] KS klinik pratikte kalp damar cerrahlarının sıkça karşılaştığı derin ven trombozuna benzer klinik tablo oluşturmaktadır. Erken tanı ile komplikasyonları önlenebilen bu tablonun ayırıcı tanısının yapılabilmesi önem arz etmektedir. Sunduğumuz vakaya malignite öyküsü ve benzer klinik tablosu nedeniyle Derin ven trombozu ön tanısı konmuştur. Ancak sonrasında kalp damar cerrahlarının klinik pratiklerinde sık rastlamadıkları litotomi pozisyonuna bağlı oluşan kompartman sendromu kesin tanısı almıştır. Bu makalede Derin ven trombozu ayırıcı tanısında akılda tutulması gereken kompartman sendromu olgusunu güncel literatür bilgileri ışığında sunmak istiyoruz.
