Endoscopic fasciotomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves cutting the fascia to relieve pressure within a muscle compartment, typically using an endoscope for visualization. It is important in clinical practice for treating conditions like chronic exertional compartment syndrome, where increased intracompartmental pressure causes pain and impaired muscle function. A key consideration is the risk of nerve injury due to limited exposure during the endoscopic approach.
