Excerpt: ...of soda or ammonia and phosphate of lime (tophaceous matter) secreted within and around the articulation. This crepitation is a sure indication of imminent complete ankylosis. The articulations of the fingers are equally liable to ankylosis from the causes here mentioned, and the deformity produced in them by gout is very considerable. Occasionally the cretaceous matter is so abundant, that the superincumbent skin yields to the pressure exercised from within outwardly, is slowly removed by absorption, rarely with ulceration. By these means the cretaceous matter is thrown out, constituting "chalk stones." The interior of the articulation may then communicate with the external atmosphere; but in consequence of the changes previously effected in the synovial membrane, the usual destructive results of exposure of the interior of an articulation do not occur. Treatment.--If the ankylosis have arisen from accident or phlegmonous inflammation, or if the cause have been struma, the case being complicated by the cicatrices of fistulas in different situations among the carpal bones, and complete immobility exist, it may be considered incurable. But in several cases of incipient calcareous adhesion of the articular surfaces from "rheumatic gout," or where sufficient tophaceous matter has been secreted around the articulation, so as firmly to encase it, all appearance of inflammation having subsided, I have been enabled, even where complete immobility existed, to restore the functions of the part. Frictions, manipulations, baths, the internal administration of iodide of potassium, and attention to the functions of the liver and kidneys, have been the remedies employed. These cases have proved to me the possibility of absorption of...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Ankylosis, or Stiff-Joint: A Practical Treatise on the Contractions and Deformities Resulting From Diseases of Joints The Author has few reasons to assign for the publication of the following pages. The treatment of ankylosis, or stiff-joint, by the Stromeyerian method, -subcutaneous division of tendons and subsequent gradual straightening, - may appear to many readers to want the charm of novelty. But, although the method in question has now been frequently practised in this country, and occasionally a successful case has been announced in the medical periodicals, no complete exposition of the forms of ankylosis in which it is especially useful, or the details necessary for enabling the competent practitioner successfully to apply it, has been hitherto published. The pathology of ankylosis in reference to the complications affecting the curability, the production of semiluxation previously to occurrence of ankylosis, and the mode in which muscular contraction arises, will be found to have engaged the Authors attention as a preliminary to the practical portion of the Treatise.

Download or read book Ankylosing Spondylitis written by Muhammad Asim Khan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) and related diseases called spondyloarthropathies (SpA) are the second most common form of chronic inflammatory arthritis after Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Unfortunately, most patients with AS and SpA are either never diagnosed, or they are inadequately treated. The current mean delay in the diagnosis of AS ranges from 5 to 10 years, and the presenting clinical manifestations of these diseases are wide-ranging and heterogeneous, and thus a variety of health care professionals see AS and SpA patients, from primary care physicians to rheumatologists and other medical and surgical specialists. With the availability of newer, highly effective treatments and better methods of musculoskeletal imaging, such as the MRI, there is an urgent need to improve early diagnosis and reduce any inappropriate delay in obtaining effective treatment. Earlier diagnosis and treatment can mitigate the severity of the disease, and make a meaningful difference for patient care and quality of life. The proposed book is designed for specialists and generalists alike, and is intenteded to expedite accurate diagnosis and initiation of appropriate treatment in order to alleviate unnecessary suffering. Part of the new Oxford American Rheumatology Library series, this pocket-sized book provides practical, evidence-based information for clinicians to aid diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care for patients with AS and SpA. The book provides pointers to early diagnosis, prognosis, clinical manifestations, socioeconomic aspects, and disease management. It also provides comprehensive coverage of current treatment options, including the latest biologics, as well as non-drug therapies.
