خلاصه
We report a case of compartment syndrome complicating malignant hyperthermia (MH) in a previously healthy patient. An intraoperative MH crisis responded to treatment with intravenous dantrolene. The patient subsequently developed a lower limb compartment syndrome which required fasciotomy. Recognition of the link between MH and compartment syndrome helps ensure prompt diagnosis and treatment of this rare complication of MH.
