Abstract:
Background: Chronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS) of the anterior leg compartment (ant-CECS) is frequently treated with a minimally invasive fasciotomy. Several operative techniques and operative devices exist, but none have been compared in a systematic and randomized manner. Purpose: To compare efficacy, safety, and postoperative pain of a novel operative device (FascioMax fasciotome) with a widely accepted device created by Due and Nordstrand (Due fasciotome) during a minimally invasive fasciotomy for ant-CECS. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial; Level of evidence, 2. Methods: Patients with bilateral isolated ant-CECS between October 2013 and April 2018 underwent a minimally invasive fasciotomy using the FascioMax fasciotome in 1 leg and the Due fasciotome in the contralateral leg in a single operative session. Symptom reduction at 3 to 6 months and >1 year, postoperative pain within the first 2 weeks, peri- and postoperative complications, and ability to regain sports were assessed using diaries, physical examination, and timed questionnaires. Results: Included in the study were 50 patients (66% female; median age, 22 years [range, 18-65 years]). No differences between the devices were found in terms of perioperative complications (both had none), minor postoperative complications including hematoma and superficial wound infection (overall complication rate: FascioMax, 8% vs Due, 6%), or reduction of CECS-associated symptoms at rest and during exercise. At long-term follow-up (>1 year), 82% of the patients were able to regain their desired type of sport, and 67% (33/49) were able to exercise at a level that was comparable with or higher than before their CECS-associated symptoms started. Conclusion: Both the FascioMax and the Due performed similarly in terms of efficacy, safety, and levels of pain within the first 2 weeks postoperatively.

Abstract:
El síndrome compartimental crónico inducido por el ejercicio o el uso excesivo raramente afecta a los miembros superiores y se ha relacionado con actividades deportivas o laborales. Describimos un caso de un paciente con diagnóstico de síndrome compartimental crónico de antebrazo, de características poco habituales, tratado con fasciotomía mínimamente invasiva. Este síndrome debe sospecharse incluso en pacientes que no practiquen actividades de riesgo y que sufran dolor compartimental inespecífico. La fasciotomía con técnica mínimamente invasiva es una opción eficaz para curar este cuadro. ABSTRACTChronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS) of the forearm is uncommon and has been described in association with sport and work-related activities. We describe the uncommon presentation of a patient with CECS of the forearm who was treated through a min-invasive fasciotomy. CECS of the forearm must be suspected in patients with compartmental pain even if they do not practice risk activities. Mini-invasive fasciotomy is an effective option for the treatment of this pathology.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to review recent experience with upper extremity fasciotomy. This study is a retrospective review of injured patients undergoing fasciotomy in the upper extremity at an urban trauma center. Mechanisms of injury, indications for and timing of fasciotomy, role of compartment pressures, techniques of closure, amputation rate, and patient outcomes were collected. Over a 3-year period, 201 fasciotomies were performed in the extremities of 157 injured patients, including 37 in the upper extremities of 27 patients. The mechanisms of injury were penetrating trauma in 13 patients (10 GSW, three SW), blunt or crush in 9, and burns (4 electric, 1 flame) in 5. Vascular injuries and fractures were present in 15 (56%) and 9 (33%) patients, respectively. The decision to perform a fasciotomy was a clinical one in 21 patients (75%), and only 6 patients had compartment pressures measured (range, 40–87 mm Hg; mean, 52). Upper extremity fasciotomy was performed at a first operation in 24 patients, whereas only 3 patients had a delayed fasciotomy from 6 to 48 hours after injury. Two patients died on the first hospital day, and 5 others had an amputation of an upper extremity at a mean of 8 days (range 2 to 26) after injury; however, no amputation was due to the failure to perform a timely fasciotomy. In the remaining 20 patients, closure of the fasciotomy site was performed at a mean of 9 days (range, 2 to 22) after injury, most commonly by split thickness skin grafting. Hospital stay was a mean of 20 days (range, 7–35). We conclude that 1) upper extremity fasciotomy accounts for less than 20 per cent of all fasciotomies performed; 2) a clinical decision is the most common reason for performing upper extremity fasciotomy, and only 11 per cent of patients underwent a delayed fasciotomy in this review; 3) the need for upper extremity fasciotomy is associated with a length of stay longer than expected for overall injury severity.

Abstract:
We report a case of acute compartment syndrome of the forearm in a 51-year-old man with open fracture distal third radius (Gustilo I). Decompressive fasciotomy was performed promptly. Complete progressive closure of the wound without split-thickness skin grafting was achieved using a shoe-lace technique: silastic vessel loop were interlaced held together with skin staplers placed at the edge of the fasciotomy wound and were then tightened daily. Delayed primary closure of the fasciotomy wound was performed after 8 days post fasciotomy with complete opposition of skin edges without tension. Shoelace closure is a good option for atraumatic fasciotomy wound closure with good cosmesis result.

Abstract:
Study Rationale: Chronic exertional compartment syndrome often forces patients to change their sporting activities or reduce their level of participation. Many undergo surgery with the aim to return to their activities symptom free. The aim of the study was to determine if fasciotomies for chronic exertional compartment syndrome are a reliable treatment option with a predictable outcome to allow patients to return to the same level of activities. Objective: The evaluation of the functional outcomes and patient satisfaction in an active population who had surgery, namely fasciotomies, for chronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS) of the lower leg. Design: A retrospective descriptive cohort study with a telephonic follow-up interview. Patients: A consecutive series of 41 patients that were surgically treated for CECS by a single orthopaedic surgeon from July 2005 to October 2013. Main Outcome Measures: Patient records were reviewed to determine their presenting symptoms, diagnostic investigations and surgical procedures performed. A questionnaire was completed by each participant to assess pain and level of activity before and after surgery, level of improvement after surgery and patient satisfaction with surgical outcomes. Results: Twenty-one of the 41 patients that were included in the study were categorized as active sportsmen, participating at a competitive or a non-competitive level. The remaining 20 were experiencing symptoms during leisure activities. The majority of all the patients (63%) had to stop their activity due to their symptoms. After surgery 95% were able to return to participate in the same level of activities as before surgery. Ninety percent of the active sportsmen were able to return to participation at a competitive or non-competitive level, with 45% reporting an increase in the level of intensity that they could maintain. Overall satisfaction was reported by 80% of participants although only 46% were completely pain free. Conclusions: Fasciotomies are a viable surgical treatment option for chronic exertional compartment syndrome in active patients, including athletes. There is an 87% return rate to previous activities within 6 months and an 80% satisfaction rate reported by patients post-surgery. We do acknowledge that some of the data collected regarding symptomology is subject to recall bias due to the interval between surgery and completion of the questionnaire.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Testicular torsion causes irreversible damage in ipsilateral testicles induced by ischemia/ reperfusion injury and compartimental syndrome that develops. The goal of the work is to evaluate the role of decompression fasciotomy with beneficial changes in testis suffered the torsion of the spermatic cord. METHOD: The torsion of the spermatic cord was induced in 40 Wistar pubescent testis for a period of 6 and 12 hours. At the time of distortion, decompression fasciotomy was performed in half of the animals. After 42 days,the testicles were examined macro and microscopically. The statistical method used was the non-parametric test of Mann-Whitney. It was considered as significant value p < 0, 0 50. RESULTS: Variables evaluated were weight, testicular volume and the degree of histological alterations by optical microscopy. Comparing groups without and with fasciotomy, was note that the group of 12:00 hour with fasciotomy had larger volume and weight and better histological classification when compared with the group of 12:00 hour without fasciotomy. There was no difference between the 2 groups of 6 hours. Comparing the groups of 6:00 and 12:00 hours, it was noted that in the group without fasciotomy, the degree of commitment was grater in the group of 12 hour, thanin the group of 6 hour, but the groups with fasciotomy of 6 and 12 hours did not show any differences of the variable analyzed. No significant changes were noted in the contralateral testis. CONCLUSION: Decompression testicular fasciotomy benefited macroscopicand histological aspects of the testicles that suffered by cord twist for a period of 12:00, showing the role of compartimental syndrome in its pathophysiology and the need for its decompression.
INTRODUÇÃO: A torção testicular provoca danos irreversíveis no testículo ipsilateral decorrentes do desenvolvimento da síndrome compartimental e consequente lesão tecidual tipo isquemia/ reperfusão. O objetivo do trabalho foi de avaliar o valor da fasciotomia testicular descompressiva na recuperação perfusional sanguínea e tecidual do testículo com torção do cordão espermático. MÉTODO: A torção do cordão espermático foi induzida em ratos púberes Wistar por 6 e 12 horas. Após a destorção, a fasciotomia testicular descompressiva foi realizada em metade dos animais. Depois de 42 dias, os testículos foram examinados macro e microscopicamente. O método estatísticoutilizado foi o teste não-paramétrico de Mann- Whitney. Consideraram-se como valor significativo p 0, 050. RESULTADOS: Foram avaliados as variáveis peso e volume testiculares e o grau de comprometimento histológico por meio da microscopia óptica. Comparando-se os grupos sem e com fasciotomia, constatou-se que o subgrupo de 12 horas com fasciotomia apresentou peso e volume testiculares, após orquiectomia, maiores e melhor classificação histológica quando comparado ao subgrupo de 12 horas sem fasciotomia. Não houve diferença entre os subgrupos de 6 horas (sem e com fasciotomia testicular). Comparando-se os subgrupos de 6 e 12 horas, observou-se que no grupo sem fasciotomia o grau de comprometimento macroscópico e histológico foi maior no subgrupo de 12 horas do que no subgrupo de 6 horas, mas os grupos com fasciotomia de 6 e de 12 horas não apresentaram diferenças das variáveis analisadas. Não foram observadas mudanças significativas no testículo contralateral.CONCLUSÃO: A fasciotomia testicular descompressiva beneficiou os aspectos macroscópicos e histológicos dos testículos que sofreram torção de cordão espermático por 12 horas.

Abstract:
INTRODUÇÃO: A Moléstia de Dupuytren (MD) é uma doença crônica progressiva fibroproliferativa caracterizada por contraturas em flexão dos dedos. A origem deste processo está na proliferação de miofibroblastos e na síntese de matriz extracelular. Diversas técnicas já foram descritas no tratamento da MD. A falta de uma técnica capaz de associar altas taxas de sucesso com baixos índices de complicações e recidivas estimulou a procura por novas técnicas. Acredita-se que a propriedade totipotente das células-tronco presentes no tecido adiposo seria capaz de atuar na proliferação e na diferenciação dos fibroblastos em miofibroblastos, interrompendo a formação da fibrose e consequentemente a progressão da deformidade dos dedos. OBJETIVO: O objetivo primário deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito do enxerto de gordura, rico em células-tronco, nos pacientes com MD, submetidos a fasciectomia parcial aberta, por meio de avaliação funcional e goniométrica, e comparar com a técnica convencional (sem adição de enxerto de gordura). MÉTODO: Dois grupos totalizando 45 pacientes (24 pacientes no Grupo Controle e 21 no Grupo com gordura) foram operados pela técnica da fasciectomia parcial aberta. No Grupo controle era realizada apenas a fasciectomia parcial aberta. No Grupo com gordura, era realizada a fasciectomia parcial aberta e injetado, no local da corda ressecada, o enxerto de gordura, após o processamento do lipoaspirado de adipócitos proposto por Coleman (2006). O estudo foi prospectivo, randomizado e terapêutico. Os desfechos foram avaliados pela medida goniométrica do Déficit de Extensão Passiva Total (DEPT) e pelo escore funcional Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire (BMHQ). As avaliações eram feitas no pré-operatório, com 6 semanas, 6 meses, 1 ano e 2 anos de seguimento. RESULTADOS: Na comparação com 6 semanas de pós-operatório, houve um aumento significativo da dor no Grupo com Gordura [mediana 2 ± 2,82 versus 0 ± 1,86 no grupo Controle (p=0,045)]. Os resultados do DEPT, não mostraram diferença significativa entre os grupos. Observamos piores resultados do escore funcional BMHQ com 6 meses e 1 ano de pós-operatório no Grupo com gordura (p=0,040 e p=0,047, respectivamente). Observamos ainda 9 casos (43%) de complicações no Grupo com gordura e 2 (8%) no Grupo Controle (p=0,019). CONCLUSÃO: O uso do enxerto de gordura associado à fasciectomia parcial aberta promoveu piores resultados funcionais comparado com a fasciectomia parcial aberta convencional, no curto prazo (um ano de seguimento pós-operatório). No entanto, resta a dúvida de qual seriam os resultados a longo prazo e, se as células-tronco, presentes no enxerto de gordura, poderiam interferir na recidiva da doença futuramente
BACKGROUND: Dupuytren\'s disease (DD) is a progressive chronic fibroproliferative disease characterized by flexion contractures of the fingers. The origin of this process is the proliferation of myofibroblasts and extra-cellular matrix synthesis. Several techniques have been described to treat the DD. The lack of a technique capable to associate high success rates with low rates of complications and recurrence stimulated the search for new techniques. It is believed that the totipotent property of the adipose-derived stem cells present in the processed lipoaspirate tissue would be able to inhibit the proliferation and differentiation of fibroblasts in myofibroblasts, interrupting the formation of fibrosis and consequently the progression of finger deformity. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of adipose-derived stem cells in patients with DD who underwent to open limited fasciectomy and compare with the conventional technique of limited fasciectomy. METHODS: A total of 45 patients were assigned in two groups in a single blind, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. All the patients were treated by the limited fasciectomy technique. In the control group (24 patients), only limited fasciectomy was performed. In the study group (21 patients), after the limited fasciectomy procedure, autologous lipoaspirate was injected at the site of the resected cord. Outcomes were assessed by the Total Passive Extension Deficit (TPED) and by the Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire (BMHQ) functional score. The evaluations were performed by occupational therapists in the preoperative and at 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years. RESULTS: The study group presented higher rates of pain at 6 weeks postoperative (median 2 ± 2,82 versus 0 ± 1,86 on control group, p=0,045). TPED showed no significant differences between groups. BMHQ score, at 6 months and 1 year after surgery, were significantly inferior in the study group (p=0,040 e p=0,047, respectively). Patients in the study group had higher incidence of complications (9 patients, 43% versus 2, 8% in the control group, p=0,019). CONCLUSIONS: The autologous lipoaspirate associated to limited fasciectomy demonstrates inferior results regarding to functional score and pain compared to conventional limited fasciectomy, in short-term. Further long-term analysis is required to observe the effect of adipose-derived stem cells in the recurrences rates

Abstract:
Introduktion: Uppsatsen är en systematisk litteraturstudie där författaren kritiskt granskar adekvata artiklar och annan aktuell litteratur, vilka beskriver Dupuytren´s kontraktur. Dupuytrens kontraktur är en fibroproliferativ sjukdom i palmar fascia och kännetecknas av en överdriven kollageninlagring. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka situationen för det kliniska arbetet samt forskning, hur man med den samlade kunskapen kan behandla Dupuytren´s kontraktur, vilka behandlings-metoder som har evidens idag samt vilken praxis som tillämpas inom området. Metod: En litteratursökning genomfördes i PubMed med sökord och kombination med Booleska sökoperationer för framtagning av relevanta artiklar, vilka faller inom ramen för uppsatta inklusionskriterier samt matchar syftet för uppsatsen. Resultat: Ingen behandling är överlägsen någon annan behandling och det finns en betydande och delad uppfattning om respektive metoder. Mindre invasiva tekniker, såsom perkutan nålfasciotomi samt injektionsbehandling med enzymet Kollagenas, är många gånger ett alternativ till kirurgi Slutsats: Hanteringen av en handkontraktur hos patienter med Dupuytrens sjukdom innebär fortfarande många utmaningar för handkirurger, trots framsteg inom medicinsk vetenskap och kirurgiska tekniker.

Abstract Percutaneous partial plantar fasciotomy was carried out in 8 patients with typical uilateral heel pain of plantar fasciitis that had persisted for 6 months or longer. Four out of the recruited eight subjects were overweight ( BMI > 25 ). Under local anesthesia, the No. 64 scalpel was stabbed and introduced toward and into the plantar fascia guided by real-time sonography. The feel of crepitation sound and metallic acoustic shadow within the plantar fascia were the signs of successful partial release. Pain intensity was graded by a 0-10 point visual analog scale( VAS ) and a 0-100 point Daly score before and after the procedure to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment. Static and dynamic plantar pressures were measured by the PEDAR pressure insoles both before and after the treatment. The results showed that the VAS score decreased by 6.65 points or 84%. The Daly score improved by 69.3 points or 76.5%. Gait adjustment with decreased loading of the pressure in the hindfoot and increased loading in the forefoot was noted in the symptomatic foot. Symmetry of pressure distribution on both feet was recorded after the surgery. Sonographically guided partial plantar fascia release is a safe and effective procedure for the relief of longterm disabling heel pain due to plantar fasciitis. Plantar pressure measurement is a useful tool to evaluate the biomechanic change and the effectiveness of the surgical intervention. .

Abstract:
Objectives: To systematically review the effectiveness of different treatment options for managing a fasciotomy wound on outcomes, including time to primary wound healing, percentage of patients who need skin grafts to effect closure of the wound and length of stay in hospital following the fasciotomies, in patients with acute compartment syndrome of the limb(s). Methods: Published and unpublished English language papers about human subjects from January 1960 to June 2012 were identified using electronic searches of medical and nursing databases. Reference lists of relevant articles were also searched. A systematic review of the papers found was conducted. Results: Thirty-two papers met the inclusion criteria and passed critical appraisal. One randomised controlled trial (RCT) was analysed separately and four cohort studies were meta-analysed. The RCT favoured the use of shoelace technique over negative pressure wound therapy based on a range of indicators. The cohort studies favoured the use of negative pressure wound therapy over saline soaked gauze on a range of indicators. Conclusion: The systematic review found limited evidence on which to base practice decisions. The single RCT needs to be replicated to confirm findings before practice change can be confidently recommended. The evidence provided some support for the use of vessel loop shoelace technique to improve the chances of achieving a primary wound closure without the need for a split thickness skin graft and to reduce length of stay when compared with negative pressure wound management. The use of negative pressure wound management appears to be associated with a higher rate of split thickness skin graft than vessel loop shoelace. Saline soaked gauze is not recommended for use with these wounds.

Abstract:
Abstract Acute compartment syndrome is a serious condition that requires urgent surgical treatment. While the current emergency treatment is straightforward — relieve intra-compartmental pressure via fasciotomy — the diagnosis is often a difficult one. A deep neural network is presented here that has been trained to detect whether isolated muscle bundles were exposed to hypoxic conditions and became ischemic.

Abstract:
Purpose. The purpose is to improve the results of treatment of patients with phlegmon of the gluteal region soft tissues by diagnosing the stage of tissue hypertension and determining the tactics of surgical treatment depending on this indicator. Materials and methods. Clinical studies were performed on 74 patients suffering from phlegmon of the gluteal region. All the patients were divided into 2 groups: in the main group (as opposed to the control group), acute tissue hypertension syndrome was diagnosed and decompressive fasciotomy was performed in tissue hypertension (30–35 mm Hg) (patent). The authors performed ultrasound cavitation and ozone therapy of a purulent wound. Results. With phlegmon of the gluteal region of soft tissues, an increase in tissue pressure by 25% above the norm is an indication for fasciotomy in the area of fascial nodes. The time of purulent wound cleaning against the background of normal tissue pressure (8–10 mm Hg) of the surgery in patients of the main group was reduced to 5 days (8 days in the control). In the long-term (0.5–1 years), good results were obtained in 92.8% of patients in the main group (64.7% in the control group). Conclusion. The developed tactics of treatment of patients with phlegmon of the soft tissues of the gluteal region are highly effective due to the development and application of new technologies for the diagnosis and treatment of tissue hypertension.
