Injuries and poisonings

Rupture of the extensor of the extensor of the finger: the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Rupture of the extensor tendon of the finger of the hand occurs on two levels: at the level of the proximal interphalangeal joint (type I) or at the level of the terminal phalanx (type II).

Damage to the flexor tendons of the fingers flexors: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Closed injuries of the flexor tendons of the fingers flexors arise when lifting heavy flat objects (sheets of metal, glass), open - with various injuries of the palmar surface of the hand.

Rupture of the rotator cuff of the shoulder: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The rupture of the tendons that are part of the rotator cuff of the shoulder, as a rule, is a complication of shoulder dislocation. Most often, the tendons of all three muscles are damaged at the same time, but isolated ruptures of the tendons of the supraspinous muscle or only the subacute and small round muscles are possible.

Rupture of the tendon of the long head of the biceps muscles of the shoulder: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Distinguish between tendon ruptures during (more often at the level of the transition to the muscular abdomen) and detachments from the fixation site, often with a small bone plate.

Damage to muscles: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Muscle ruptures are very rare, and complete ruptures are a unique trauma.

Syndrome of prolonged crushing: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The syndrome of prolonged crushing (synonyms: traumatic toxicosis, crash syndrome, crushing syndrome, myoretic syndrome, "liberation" syndrome, Byuothers syndrome) is a specific variant of trauma associated with massive prolonged crushing of soft tissues or compression of the major vascular trunks of the extremities, characterized by severe clinical course and high mortality.

Rupture: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Ruptura is a violation of the anatomical integrity of tissues, caused by a force exceeding their elastic capabilities.

Stretching: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Distortion (distorsio) - soft tissue damage caused by a force acting in the form of traction and not violating the anatomical continuity of the elastic formations (ligaments, tendons, muscles).

Bruise: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Contusion (contusio) - damage to soft tissues due to the short-term action of the traumatic agent, not accompanied by the formation of wounds.

Progressive facial atrophy

In the literature, this disease is known under two terms: half progressive facial atrophy (hemiatrophia faciei progressiva) and bilateral progressive facial atrophy (atrophia faciei progressiva bilateralis).
