The volar forearm had bulging muscles that contracted with electrocautery stimulation, and there was no evidence of necrosis, pus, or odor (Figure 1). Because the swelling worsened over the 12 hours, especially in the dorsal hand and forearm, he was taken back to surgery, and new dorsal fasciotomies were made (Figure 1).
