[Results of treatment of compartment syndrome of the upper arm].

Only a small number of cases of compartment syndrome in the upper arm has been reported in the literature. The authors have reviewed 14 patients with 14 cases of compartment syndrome treated at their institution from 1980 to 1988. In the majority of cases in this series, compartment syndrome was caused by blunt, high-energy trauma. There were 9 patients with multiple trauma, 7 of whom were motor cyclists, and fracture of the upper arm was present in most of these. In 5 patients scapulothoracic dissociation with disruption of the neurovascular bundle of the upper extremity concerned was present. In this series, 2 patients died of their injuries and three arms had to be amputated. At final follow-up after an average of 45 months (range 11-91 months) the functional result was dependent mainly on the severity of the associated injuries. Patients with isolated compartment syndrome had full recovery of upper limb function.
