| Core Tip |
Though the fingertip compartment syndrome is not common, the digital decompression through finger fasciotomy with midlateral release is essential. In this case, compartment syndrome occurred in the middle finger without fracture due to a crushing injury caused by a common high-pressure washer. Fasciotomy was performed immediately. The patient was concerned about necrosis of the finger and demanded early amputation on the first day after operation. But the complete recovery was confirmed on the next day without significant complications. Therefore, we should avoid determining the recovery of finger circulation hastily and performing premature amputation of the fingertip. |
