Hyperimmunoglobulinaemia D syndrome (HIDS) is defined as recurrent fever, generalised lymphadenitis, abdominal pain, arthritis and raised polyclonal serum IgD >100 IU/ml. The cause is a mutation in the mevalonate kinase gene. Other periodic fever syndromes are known. We report a new patient and
BACKGROUND
Hyperthermia has been introduced as a physical therapy modality for soft tissue injuries.
OBJECTIVE
The authors tested the null hypothesis that there are no short-term differences after the use of hyperthermia, ultrasound, and exercises for tendinopathy of the supraspinatus
The objective of this randomized study was to compare a thermotherapy system, hyperthermia at 434 MHz and conventional ultrasound in the treatment of overuse sports tendinopathies. The study group consisted of 44 athletes, 33 males and 11 females (age 26 +/- 4.56 years) affected by tendinopathies at
OBJECTIVE
To report the effects of local microwave diathermy (hyperthermia) at 434 Mhz on calcific tendinopathy of the shoulder in two middle aged patients.
METHODS
Two middle-aged women with calcific tendinopathy of the shoulder were treated with local microwave diathermy (hyperthermia) at 434 Mhz
BACKGROUND
Long head biceps (LHB) tendinopathy is a common cause of anterior shoulder pain. Isolated LHB pathology is most common among younger people who practise overhead sports. The authors conducted a short-term prospective randomised study to test the effectiveness of two different methods for
METHODS
Single-blind randomized clinical trial, with a follow-up of 24 weeks.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effects of hyperthermia via localized microwave diathermy on pain and disability in comparison to subacromial corticosteroid injections in patients with rotator cuff
Presented here is a rare cause of severe neck pain - acute longus colli calcific tendinitis - in a 54year old man who presented to the emergency department. The neck pain is due to inflammation caused by calcium hydroxyapatite crystal deposition in the tendons on the longus colli muscles. This is
The tendon of the longus colli muscle is an unusual location for a common condition. Acute inflammation with calcareous deposits is similar in radiographic and clinical presentation to acute calcific tendinitis in common locations, such as the supraspinatus tendon in the shoulder. The radiographic
We report a case of calcific retropharyngeal tendonitis that was difficult to distinguish from retropharyngeal abscess. The patient was a 34-year-old woman who complained of severe cervical pain and stiffness for 1 day. She had a fever and moderately elevated WBC. Fine needle aspiration of the
A 30 years man presented with fever and skin manifestations in the form of multiple tender, erythematous, asymmetric nodules and papules predominantly over the upper arms and back. The nodules were coalescing to form irregular sharply demarcated plaques over the forearms and thighs. There were
Longus colli calcific tendinitis is a rare condition which mimics the alarming condition, retropharyngeal abscess. Clinically, the patient presents which acute cervical pain, dysphagia and fever. Since this condition is little known to otorhinolaryngologists, it is usually misdiagnosed as a
Acute calcific tendinitis is uncommon in children. Clinical manifestations are similar to those in adults. The abrupt onset, functional impairment, and frequent presence of fever suggest an infection. Radiographic findings establish the diagnosis, obviating the need for further investigations.
We report a case of acute generalized pustular bacterid (AGPB) concomitant with erythema nodosum (EN), polyarthritis, and Achilles tendinitis. The patient was admitted with a complaint of fever, widespread plural pustules, erythema, and polyarthralgia. Histopathological examination of the skin
OBJECTIVE
To review the current concepts on tendon damage and reactive oxygen species (ROS). We suggest that tendons are subject to reactive oxygen generated both within the vicinity of the tendon and from the tenocytes themselves.
METHODS
A literature search was conducted to trace relevant
Chronic tendinopathy of the human Achilles tendon (AT) is common but its injury mechanism is not fully understood. It has been hypothesised that heat energy losses from the AT during running could explain the degeneration of AT material seen with injury. A mathematical model of AT temperature
