Compartment syndrome in patients with haemophilia

The Risk of Venipuncture in Newborn with Severe Hemophilia: Case Report of a Large Elbow Hemorrhage and Literature Review of Compartment Syndrome

“…Infection is a possible complication that can aggravate blood loss. 9 There are limited experiences in literature of ACS in hemophilic subjects (Table 1). In 1977 Lancourt et al observed, in 200 hemophilics, 34 episodes of bleeding into the hand and forearm.…”

“…1 Uncontrolled venipuncture hemorrhage can be the cause of a serious complication: the compartment syndrome. 9 In literature there are limited experiences of acute compartment syndrome (ACS) in hemophilic subjects. In this paper, we describe a newborn with severe hemophilia A who presented a serious volar arm bleeding post venipuncture.…”

Price of PRICE (Protection, Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation) redefined: a case of entrapment neuropathy in an individual with hemophilia

“…In most cases, only one nerve is involved, and the simultaneous involvement of multiple nerves, e.g., the median and ulnar nerves, is rare. The most common cause of compartment syndrome is hemorrhage in the calf and anterior forearm [3]. A recent systematic review has shown that 21% of patients with acute compartment syndrome in the thigh had coagulation defects [34].…”

“…The most common cause of compartment syndrome is hemorrhage in the calf and anterior forearm [3]. A recent systematic review has shown that 21% of patients with acute compartment syndrome in the thigh had coagulation defects [34]. In these cases, achieving hemostasis is significantly more important than a fasciotomy [3].…”

“…A recent systematic review has shown that 21% of patients with acute compartment syndrome in the thigh had coagulation defects [34]. In these cases, achieving hemostasis is significantly more important than a fasciotomy [3]. CTS, which is a condition caused by median nerve entrapment, can occur in individuals with early compartment syndrome.…”
