Shoulder impingement syndrome. Shoulder impingement syndrome is a syndrome involving tendonitis ( inflammation of tendons) of the rotator cuff muscles as they pass through the subacromial space, the passage beneath the acromion. It is particularly associated with tendonitis of the supraspinatus muscle. [ 1] This can result in pain, weakness ...
Aneurysmal bone cyst ( ABC) is a non-cancerous bone tumor composed of multiple varying sizes of spaces in a bone which are filled with blood. [ 1][ 4] The term is a misnomer, as the lesion is neither an aneurysm nor a cyst. [ 5] It generally presents with pain and swelling in the affected bone. [ 1]
Calcific tendinitis is a common condition where deposits of calcium phosphate form in a tendon, sometimes causing pain at the affected site. Deposits can occur in several places in the body, but are by far most common in the rotator cuff of the shoulder. Around 80% of those with deposits experience symptoms, typically chronic pain during ...
The cerebellopontine angle syndrome is a distinct neurological syndrome of deficits that can arise due to the closeness of the cerebellopontine angle to specific cranial nerves. [ 1] Indications include unilateral hearing loss (85%), speech impediments, disequilibrium, tremors or other loss of motor control. The cerebellopontine angle cistern ...
Some people report increased pain associated with cold temperature, high humidity, or a drop in barometric pressure, but studies have had mixed results. [ 14 ] Osteoarthritis commonly affects the hands, feet, spine , and the large weight-bearing joints, such as the hips and knees, although in theory, any joint in the body can be affected.
The most significant impact of magnetic resonance neurography is on the evaluation of the large proximal nerve elements such as the brachial plexus (the nerves between the cervical spine and the underarm that innervate shoulder, arm and hand), [9] the lumbosacral plexus (nerves between the lumbosacral spine and legs), the sciatic nerve in the pelvis, [10] as well as other nerves such as the ...
Tarsal tunnel syndrome ( TTS) is a nerve compression syndrome or nerve entrapment syndrome causing a painful foot condition in which the tibial nerve is entrapped as it travels through the tarsal tunnel. [ 1][ 2] The tarsal tunnel is found along the inner leg behind the medial malleolus (bump on the inside of the ankle).
