<unk>  becomes important clinically when it loses stiffness, becomes too stiff or has decreased shearing ability. When inflammatory<unk> tis or trauma causes<unk> ibrosis and adhesions,<unk> l tissue<unk> ails to differentiate the adjacent structures effectively. This can happen after surgery where the<unk>  has been incised and healing includes a scar that traverses the surrounding structures. Anatomical compartments A<unk> l compartment is a section within the body that contains muscles and nerves and is surrounded by<unk> . In the human body, the limbs can each be divided into two segments – the upper limb can be divided into the arm and the<unk> orearm and the sectional compartments of both of these – the<unk> l compartments of the arm and the<unk> l compartments of the<unk> orearm contain an anterior and a posterior compartment. Likewise, the lower limbs can be divided into two segments – the leg and the thigh and these contain the<unk> l compartments of the leg and the<unk> l compartments of the thigh. A<unk> tomy may be used to relieve compartment syndrome as a result of high pressure within a<unk> l compartment.
