The management of acute Achilles tendon rupture has been well established and is often treated with interrupted tenorrhaphy. While surgical site infection, rerupture and ankle contracture has been reported as potential complications, the tendon often heals uneventfully, and reports of complication other than mentioned above are extremely rare. We report a case of a common peroneal nerve injury which occurred after Achilles tendon repair surgery. The injury may have occurred following compartment syndrome from the anteriorly place long leg splint. To our knowledge, this is the first report in the literature.

Treatment of spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage (SRH) is mainly conservative. However, if intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) or abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) develops, the treatment strategy should be more aggressive. Surgical decompression has been the gold standard; however, it is very invasive and highly morbid. Thus, percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) has been introduced as an alternative therapeutic option. We report on a case of successful PCD for prevention of progression of IAH to ACS in a patient with SRH after coronary stent implantation. This case showed that PCD can be an efficacious and safe method for treatment of IAH with impending ACS.
