| Popis: | Muscle injuries are frequent in the workplace. They are produced by sudden direct or indirect trauma that involves a rupture of the fibres, causing bruising. Currently, there is no single protocol-based model of treatment. We present the case of a patient diagnosed with complete muscular rupture of the plantaris muscle by an indirect traumatic mechanism (abrupt muscular elongation), with an associated large-volume hematoma. Clinical study consisted of ultrasound, magnetic resonance (MR), pain assessment (VAS) at the beginning and at the end of the treatment (3 weeks), as well as duration of occupational disability. The patient underwent extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) according to the protocol. At the end of treatment, the hematoma was resolved and there were no complications. ESWT could be a complementary therapeutic alternative to conventional treatment in this entity. However, there is a need for further, randomised controlled studies including a larger number of patients. |
