An isolated anterior compartment syndrome after a Bimalleolar fracture - Open Reduction and Internal Fixation in a patient with underlying non-compliant Parkinson`s disease - a case Report.
Pak J Surg Jan ;38(1):45-7.

An extremely rare and unusual complication following isolated ankle fracture is compartment syndrome. It has been reported with both closed and open treatment of this injury however an isolated anterior compartment syndrome is not that common as compared to lateral compartment syndrome of lower limb. In our tertiary care setup; we report the delayed development of an isolated anterior compartment syndrome after operative treatment of a bimalleolar equivalent ankle fracture in an elderly lady with an underlying (non-compliant) Parkinson`s disease.
