Recent cases of trench foot.
Two cases of cold injury to the lower extremities, 'trench foot', are presented. The management is essentially conservative, but in cases of severe damage, particularly in elderly people, amputation must be advised.
متن کاملDynamically Supported Trench Topography
A viscous flow model of a subduction zone is used to calculate the near-trench deformation and topography of the overriding plate in response to tectonic and buoyancy forces. The tectonic force, which is associated with global plate motion, arises from subduction of a cold oceanic lithosphere that shears the overriding lithosphere along the contact between the two plates. The buoyancy force ari...
متن کاملTrench Foot or Non-Freezing Cold Injury As a Painful Vaso-Neuropathy: Clinical and Skin Biopsy Assessments
BACKGROUND Trench foot, or non-freezing cold injury (NFCI), results from cold exposure of sufficient severity and duration above freezing point, with consequent sensory and vascular abnormalities which may persist for years. Based on observations of Trench foot in World War II, the condition was described as a vaso-neuropathy. While some reports have documented nerve damage after extreme cold e...
متن کاملFrom trench fever to endocarditis.
The case of a 44 year old woman with infective endocarditis due to Bartonella quintana, an organism long recognised to cause a condition known as trench fever, is reported. This case illustrates the lengthy differential diagnosis of "culture negative" endocarditis. In addition the presence of serological cross reactivity of Bartonella spp and Chlamydia spp demonstrates the potential for misdiag...
