Volkmann's contracture, or acute myogenic contracture, is a serious disease characterized by compaction and shortening of soft tissues, which leads to limited mobility of joints, primarily in the upper limbs. The main etiopathogenetic mechanism of this pathology is compression of nerves and blood vessels, which can occur with injuries, especially with fractures, which result in edema, which contributes to a decrease in blood supply and tissue necrosis. Volkmann's contracture can affect both skin, tendons, and muscles, which ultimately leads to irreversible functional impairment. The problem is relevant in traumatology and rheumatology, where rapid and correct treatment is important to minimize long-term consequences for the patient.<\/p>\n
