Radial Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for Chronic Insertion Desmopathy of the Proximal Suspensory Ligament
In human medicine, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is an established therapeutic procedure for treatment of renal calculi. In the last few years extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) also has been used in human orthopedic treatment, especially chronic insertion tendopathy/desmitis such as “tennis elbow,” tendinosis calcarea, and pseudarthrosis. In the veterinary field, the use of ESWT ...
متن کاملIn Vivo Evaluation of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for collagenase Induced Suspensory Ligament Desmitis
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy improved the rate of healing of collagenase-induced suspensory ligament desmitis in horses, as measured by ultrasonographic imaging. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy resulted in a statistically significant decrease in lesion area and improved fiber alignment and echogenicity of the ligament in treated ligaments when compared with control ligaments. Authors’ ad...
متن کاملRadial Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (rESWT) in Orthopaedics
Since the introduction of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) for the treatment of nephrolithiasis, the indication has been extended and the technical possibilities of ESWT have been considerably improved. Besides the classical indication of “kidney stones”, extra-corporeal shockwaves are also used in gall stones, pancreatic stones and salivary calculi [1-3]. In orthopedics ESWT is indicate...
متن کاملExtracorporeal shock wave therapy does not improve hypertensive nephropathy
Low-energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy (SWT) has been shown to improve myocardial dysfunction, hind limb ischemia, erectile function, and to facilitate cell therapy and healing process. These therapeutic effects were mainly due to promoting angiogenesis. Since chronic kidney diseases are characterized by renal fibrosis and capillaries rarefaction, they may benefit from a proangiogenic tre...
متن کاملProximal Suspensory Desmitis in the Sports Horse in Forelimbs
Proximal suspensory desmitis (PSD) results in sudden onset lameness, which can be remarkably transient, resolving within 24 hours unless the horse is worked hard. In horses with more chronic injury lameness may be persistent. PSD in forelimbs occurs in horses of all ages and from all disciplines. Extravagantly moving young dressage horses and older upper level competition horses are particularl...
