Musculoskeletal manifestations of endocrine disorders
2014, Clinical ImagingCitation Excerpt :This can involve the quadriceps, patellar, or triceps tendons, or the flexor or extensor tendons of the fingers (Fig. 15). Bilateral involvement is suspicious for a metabolic disorder such as hyperparathyroidism [45]. Renal osteodystrophy is the term used to describe the musculoskeletal manifestations of renal disease, encompassing changes of secondary hyperparathyroidism including, osteomalacia, osteoporosis, and soft tissue calcifications [46,47].
Simultaneous bilateral quadriceps tendon rupture in a uremic patient
2011, Formosan Journal of Musculoskeletal DisordersCitation Excerpt :MRI is particularly useful for getting preoperative details. It allows better visualization of soft tissues and anatomical details, and the precise location and extent of rupture can be identified.26–28 Early surgical treatment with rehabilitation protocol supervised by physical therapist can lead to good results.15–17
