    AbstractWe report a case of a 54-year-old man who underwent an prolonged spinal osteosynthesis complicated by a masseter muscle compressive ischaemia and haematoma in the early postoperative period. A special attention of the body compressive points in particular of the face, in association with an horseshoe's headstall, would have probably lead to avoid this complication in this risk factors patient.Copyright © 2011 Société française d'anesthésie et de réanimation (Sfar).
