Acute compartment syndrome is a surgical emergency requiring in time management otherwise complications which may lead sever discomfort or to loss of limb can occur. In a study it has been found that acute compartment syndrome is present in 87 (7.73 %) of all tibial diaphyseal fractures with no significant difference in incidence of acute compartment syndrome in type of fractures. Result of this study can be used to find the magnitude of this emergency condition in patient with fracture and the pre planning for such condition.
