Arthrogenic Muscle Inhibition

A 25-year-old man initially presented with right knee extension deficit after an acute trauma, caused by a condition known as arthrogenic muscle inhibition. This should not be confused with a mechanical block caused by intra-articular pathology. The loss of knee extension, even if minimal, is disabling and leads to worse results after knee surgical treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to recognize and diagnose arthrogenic muscle inhibition to ensure the best treatment for patients with this condition. In this case report, the patient was managed with a rehabilitation technique resulting in an effective functional gain of the quadriceps and full restoration of knee extension.

Benign Tumours

Cavernous hemangiomas are benign tumours of mesodermal origin. Even though various localizations of hemangioma have been described in the literature, its occurrence in the greater omentum is very rare. Only symptomatic hemangiomas are indicated for surgical treatment. There are case reports presenting resection or surgical removal of the greater omentum with hemangioma because of mechanical syndrome, consumption coagulopathy, bleeding, infection or suspicion of a malignancy. This article presents a case report of a patient operated on for a suspicion of carcinomatosis of the greater omentum. Histological examination found hemangiomatosis in the resected greater omentum.

THE AIM OF THIS STUDY is to present the physiotherapy for overcoming the substitution movements and to restore the correct function in the phase of relative protection after surgical stabilized proximal tibia fracture. Material and method Seven patients after fracture in the proximal lateral compartment of the tibia (type b1 in AO classification) with an average age of 42, 9 years were treated. After surgery, an average of 30 days of the brace was used for relative protection. The aim of the physiotherapy was to overcome muscle imbalance to achieve proper movement in the respective planes. Emphasis on recovery was the proper weight bearing on the operated lower limb. RESULTS The results of the first recovery phase demonstrated very limited knee flexion in range of 22, 7º, and knee extension deficit in the range of -15º. After two weeks the results progressed to 115, 5º flexion and full restoration of the extension. Control of edema and hypotrophy of the thigh were proven by circumference. CONCLUSION The adequate physiotherapy provides overcoming of the substitution movements and to restore the correct knee function in the phase of relative protection after surgical stabilized fracture in the proximal tibia.

Precipitating Factor

Osteomyelitis of maxillofacial skeleton is common in developing countries such as India. This case report describes successful surgical treatment of chronic suppurative osteomyelitis {CSO} of the mandible of a 35yr old female. The precipitating factor was thought to be eventful extraction in the {left } posterior body at the inferior border of mandible. Methods: Presurgical course of antibiotics ( Amoxycillin and metronidazole for 7 days and later followed by doxycycline for 1 month).Surgical debridement of the affected bone and reinforcing it with reconstruction plate using AO principles was done . Patient was kept on a high nutrient diet consisting of proteins. Conclusion: The case report demonstrates the typical features of CSO . The combination of the antibiotics therapy and surgical debridement was successful in the treatment of chronic suppurative osteomylitis.

Local Invasion

We report the case of a 57-year-old woman who presented with local invasion of the anal canal by mucinous adenocarcinoma, the malignant transformation of a long-term preexisting retrorectal tailgut cyst. This progression is infrequent and justifies preemptive surgical treatment of retrorectal cysts.
