Popis: CASE: Lumbar paraspinal compartment syndrome (LPCS) is a rare but potentially catastrophic pathology caused by increased intracompartmental pressures leading to potential ischemic necrosis of muscle, local denervation, and complications of rhabdomyolysis. A combination of unique clinical history and examination findings, laboratory findings, and radiologic imaging help in diagnosis. CONCLUSION: Early detection and intervention with minimally invasive percutaneous fasciotomy can minimize local soft tissue trauma while providing extensive fascial release with good clinical outcomes. Radiographic follow-up in this case suggests that the muscle at risk in LPCS can be spared with early surgical intervention.
