Compartment syndrome of the foot.

Compartment syndrome is a relatively common posttraumatic diagnosis in the forearm and lower leg. Although the existence of this syndrome in the foot has been documented, it is not a well-known entity. Because delays in recognition and treatment can lead to catastrophic complications, practitioners should be aware of both its existence and its presentation. The authors present a case report of pedal compartment syndrome and a discussion of the literature pertaining to its diagnosis and treatment.
