말초동맥 폐쇄 환자에서 경피적 경혈관 중재술 시행 후 발생한 구획 증후군 2예

Abstract

Compartment syndrome is the term used to describe the constellation of clinical symptoms and signs associated with pathophysiologically elevated intracompartmental pressure. It is an infrequent but serious complication of the revascularization of peripheral arterial disease, encountered in surgical bypass and thrombolytic procedures. We present two cases of intraarterial thrombolysis and percutaneous transluminal intervention of the lower extremity arteries, complicated by the development of compartment syndrome.
