Aortic Aneurysm Repair

A 66-year-old man underwent emergency surgery for a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with right common and internal iliac aneurysms. Postoperatively, his right buttock was distended and tender to compression. A CT scan revealed an extremely swollen right gluteus maximus with decreased density. Macromyoglobinuria was noted, and creatine kinase and myoglobin were elevated: 87,800 IU/l and 144,300 ng/ml, respectively. Renal function had deteriorated and he was treated with hemodialysis until the 15th postoperative day. The patient recovered without any discomfort to the buttock or intermittent claudication. To our knowledge this is the first documented case of gluteal compartment syndrome after the repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
