Extracorporeal shockwave therapy in musculoskeletal disorders
The sources of shockwave generation include electrohydraulic, electromagnetic and piezoelectric principles. Electrohydraulic shockwaves are high-energy acoustic waves generated under water explosion with high voltage electrode. Shockwave in urology (lithotripsy) is primarily used to disintegrate urolithiasis, whereas shockwave in orthopedics (orthotripsy) is not used to disintegrate tissues, ra...
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 کاملCellulite and Focused Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy for Non-Invasive Body Contouring: a Randomized Trial
INTRODUCTION Focused extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) has been demonstrated to improve wound healing and skin regeneration such as in burn wounds and scars. We hypothesized that the combination of focused ESWT and a daily gluteal muscle strength program is superior to SHAM-ESWT and gluteal muscle strength training in moderate to severe cellulite. METHODS This was a single-center, doubl...
متن کاملHigh-energy extracorporeal shockwave therapy in a patellar tendon animal model: a vascularization-focused study
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of high-energy extracorporeal shockwave therapy on tendon angiogenesis in the patellar tendons of rabbits. We sought to investigate whether different voltage and number pulses modify the angiogenesis pattern. INTRODUCTION High-energy extracorporeal shockwave therapy is an option in the treatment of orthopedic diseases such as chronic t...
متن کاملExtracorporeal shockwave therapy for peyronie disease.
While surgery is the mainstay of therapy for Peyronie disease requiring correction of angulation, interest has grown in the application of extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) as a minimally invasive approach. This article reviews the current literature reporting the use of ESWT for Peyronie disease.
