Volkmann's contracture : ウィキペディア英語版 | Volkmann's contracture
Volkmann's contracture, also known as Volkmann's ischaemic contracture, is a permanent flexion contracture of the hand at the wrist, resulting in a claw-like deformity of the hand and fingers. Passive extension of fingers is restricted and painful. Volkmann's Ischemic Contracture is the direct result of undiagnosed Compartment Syndrome. It is excruciatingly painful and disabiling. ==History== It is named after Dr. Richard von Volkmann (1830 - 1889), the 19th century German doctor who first described it,〔R. Volkmann. Die ischämischen Muskellähmungen und Kontracturen. Centralblatt für Chirurgie, Leipzig, 1881, 8: 801-803.〕 in a paper on ''"non-Infective Ischemic conditions of various fascial compartments in the extremities"''. Because the contracture occurred at the same time as the paralysis, he considered a nerve etiology to be unlikely.
