ABSTRACT
IMPLICATIONS: Complications of IV mannitol administration resulting in compartment syndrome may warrant surgical intervention. Compartment syndrome is difficult to diagnose in the anesthetized patient. Infusing mannitol in an observed IV site permits discontinuation of mannitol before complications ensue. Early recognition and surgical intervention averted potential impairment in our patient.

ABSTRACT
IMPLICATIONS: Extravasation or IV injury attributable to phenytoin can cause severe soft tissue damage. Anesthesiologists are likely to encounter this problem and should recognize it and the potential complications. With increased awareness, the occurrence may be minimized.
