Sexual dysfunction Wth erectile disability is a common complication in spinal cord injured males. Usually their erectile dysfunction are neurogenic in originn. We have begun to apply intra-cavernous injection of prostaglandin E1(PGE1) for management of erectile dysfunction in spinal cord injuries since 1991 and encouraging results have been achieved. We report here a case of chronic spinal cord injury with vasogenic erectile dysfunction who does not respond to intracaver-nous PGE1 injection. We want to clarify that the use of intracavernous PGE1 injection in application to cavernosography and penile blood flow study is of great value in differential diagnosis of erectile …

The dysfunction or pathomechanics of sacroiliac joint is a common cause of low back pain. The sacroiliac joints are nonweight bearing joints that function to absorb forces from various directions. Pyogenic infection of the sacroiliac joint resulted in limited hip mobility and pain when the peivis was compressed. The first case was diagnosed as septic arthritis and reported.Infectious processes in the retroperitoneal space often involve the iliopsoas muscle. The infection usually is secondary to other intra-abdominal or intra-pelvic inflammatory processes However they rarely arise primarily within the retroperitoneum. These primary infections occur most often in younger patients and usually will …

Acute Spinal Cord Injury Complicating With Pulmonary Embolism: A Casereport, Ssu-Yuan Chen, Chun-Liang Wu, Yen-Ho Wang, Juey-Jen Hwang, Jin-Shin Lai, I-Nan Lien

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a life-threatening disease with variable manifestations and thus early diagnosis is difficult among the spinal cord injury (SCI) patients. There are still no clinical reports or statistical data about the PE in SCI patients in Taiwan. However, the incidence of PE in SCI patients was higher than that in general population according to the reports in western countries, and early prevention, diagnosis and treatment were documented to reduce the morbidity and mortality. So the doctor should keep alert to the possible PE in the SCI patients especially when there are new-onset symptoms or signs. Here we …

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

A female of age 30 years developed a muscular weakness in proximal extremities during 2 years and responded poorly to steroid treatment. Creatine kinase in isoenzymic MM form was markedly elevated according to a serum muscle enzyme test. Electromyography examination showed a myopathic feature. Histopathological tests in muscle biopsy specimens revealed prominent cytoplasmic vacuoles rimmed by basophilic granules under space optical microscopy, and abundant intranuclear filamentous inclusions in electron microscopy. These clinical features and athological especially electron microscopic findings are considered to be of paramount importance for the diagnosis of inclusion body myositis.
