AB  - Elevated  pressures  within  a  confined  muscle  compartment  can  lead  to  functional  and  circulatory  impairment  of  that  limb.  The  most  common  compartments  affected  are  in  the  leg  and  forearm.  An  increase  in  compartment  size  and  volume  or  external  compressive  forces  can  lead  to  development  of  this  syndrome  (Table  176-1).
