Primary closure of fasciotomies has a reduced complication rate following compartment syndrome in the paediatric population.
Purpose: Currently no guidance exists within the literature regarding diagnostic criteria or the long-term outcomes for paediatric patients with acute compartment syndrome (ACS). We conducted a retrospective cohort study reviewing all cases of paediatric ACS managed at a single tertiary referral centre with the aim of characterising the factors responsible for the eventual outcomes.
Methods: The patient cohort was identified retrospectively by interrogating the hospital coding system for all paediatric patients between January 2014 and November 2022. The electronic emergency department, inpatient and operative notes as well as clinic letters for each patient were reviewed and data collected regarding presentation, associated injuries, management and subsequent complications plus length of follow-up. The data was analysed to determine if differences in presentation or management affected long term outcome.
Results: The final cohort consisted of 34 patients with a mean age of ten years at the time of presentation. The mean time from presentation to fasciotomy was 27.6 h (range 3.0 - 66.6). There was an overall complication rate of 37.5% with a mean follow-up period of 21 months. Patients who had direct closure of their fasciotomy wounds had a significantly lower complications rate and fewer operations compared to those who healed via other wound coverage methods or secondary intention (p < 0.05).
Conclusions: Significantly higher complication rates were observed in patients who were unable to have direct wound closure following emergency fasciotomy. This information may be utilised to rationalise long term treatment plans and in counselling of patients and parents.
期刊介绍:
International Orthopaedics, the Official Journal of the Société Internationale de Chirurgie Orthopédique et de Traumatologie (SICOT) , publishes original papers from all over the world. The articles deal with clinical orthopaedic surgery or basic research directly connected with orthopaedic surgery. International Orthopaedics will also link all the members of SICOT by means of an insert that will be concerned with SICOT matters.
Finally, it is expected that news and information regarding all aspects of orthopaedic surgery, including meetings, panels, instructional courses, etc. will be brought to the attention of the readers.
Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been approved by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted.
Reports of animal experiments must state that the "Principles of laboratory animal care" (NIH publication No. 85-23, revised 1985) were followed, as well as specific national laws (e.g. the current version of the German Law on the Protection of Animals) where applicable.
The editors reserve the right to reject manuscripts that do not comply with the above-mentioned requirements. The author will be held responsible for false statements or for failure to fulfil the above-mentioned requirements.
