Tendonous Petal Rupture Tendonous petal is the tendon that surrounds the head of the humerus and is essentially responsible for the movement of the shoulder. A group of 3 Shoulder Muscles, the Supraspinatus, the Subspinatus, and the Teres Minor, which perform the movement of external rotation and abduction, have a common tendon attachment to the...

The causes are varied and are due to: – heredity – age over 40 years – gender: women are particularly susceptible, especially over 55 years – history of sports injuries – patient’s medical...
Osteoarthritis of the knee Of similar frequency to the hip joint, the knee joint is one of the most common areas affected by osteoarthritis. The causes are varied and are due to: – heredity – age over 40 years – gender: women are particularly susceptible, especially over 55 years – history of sports injuries – patient’s...
Meniscus The meniscus – an elastic structure made of collagen tissue and fibrocartilage found in the knee joint – is of crucial importance for the proper functioning of the knee joint, i.e. the uniform distribution of weight and the stabilization of the knee joint. The causes that may cause meniscus damage are varied...
Achilles tendon rupture The Achilles tendon – the strongest tendon in the human body – is responsible for the movement of the ankle joint but also for filtering the voluntary or involuntary excessive muscle contraction, very common in athletes. Achilles tendon rupture (damage) is one of the rare sports injuries and occurs mainly in amateur...
Crucifix injuries Crucifix injuries include fractures, partial or complete tears of the anterior cruciate and posterior cruciate ligaments. The cruciate ligaments ensure stability of the knee in every movement. The anterior cruciate ligament prevents anterior and rotational displacement of the tibia, and the posterior cruciate ligament prevents posterior displacement. Injury to both the anterior...
Transient Osteoporosis of the Hip Transient Osteoporosis of the Hip is a rare disease that causes a transient decrease in bone density of the proximal part of the femur and occurs most often in: Young and middle-aged men (30-60 years old) Women during the last months of pregnancy or postpartum.
