Core Tip |
Acute compartment syndrome of the thigh is an uncommon complication following total hip arthroplasty, which has not yet been reported after hip replacement by anterior approach through the anterior supine interval. Global increase in venous thromboembolism chemoprophylaxis may lead to an increase in incidence of postoperative bleeding and with this an increase in acute compartment syndrome of the thigh following primary total hip arthroplasty. Onset of severe pain of the upper leg postoperatively should warrant a high index of suspicion of this condition. Diagnostic tools such as ultrasound, computed tomography or intra-compartmental pressure measurements can be useful but should not lead to any delay of treatment. |
