摘要：
Compartment syndrome caused by necrotising fasciitis has rarely been described. We report a case of systemic Vibrio vulnificus necrotising fasciitis presented with compartmental syndrome of the forearm and septic shock. The patient was treated with systemic antibiotic treatment and urgent surgical decompression followed by multiple necrotic tissue debridements. The patient recovered with some limited motion of the hand function. Prompt recognition and immediate treatment with antibiotics and surgical intervention are essential.
