    Author: Ramanujam CL, Wade J, Selbst B, Belczyk R, Zgonis T.
    Journal: Clin Podiatr Med Surg; 2010 Jul; 27(3):469-74. PubMed ID: 20691378.
    Abstract:
    Acute compartment syndrome is a known possible complication of calcaneal fractures and few case reports have documented a recurrent event after initial surgical fasciotomies. This article describes a rare case demonstrating a recurrence of acute compartment syndrome within days of initial fasciotomies and surgical repair of a comminuted calcaneal fracture.
