Abstract

Neonatal compartment syndrome is a rare condition mainly involving the upper extremity with ulcerated and necrotic lesions. It should be evaluated in detail due to the similarity with other conditions like necrotizing fasciitis, neonatal gangrene, and congenital varicella, etc. Early diagnosis and treatment have a paramount importance for the best outcome. To emphasize this, we would like to present a newborn with the forearm compartment syndrome diagnosed promptly and treated surgically. Neonatal kompartman sendromu çoğu zaman üst ekstremitede ülserasyon, nekroz ve doku kaybıyla seyreden nadir bir durumdur. Nekrotizan fasiit, neonatal gangren, konjenital varisella ve buna benzer klinik tablolarla karışması nedeniyle detaylı bir araştırma gerektirmekte ve iyi sonuç açısından da erken tanı ve tedavi önemli olmaktadır. Bunu vurgulamak amacıyla erken tanı koyup, cerrahi olarak tedavi ettiğimiz bir neonatal kompartman sendromu olgusunu sunduk.
