DOI Web Site Web Site 被引用文献1件

説明

<jats:p> Lateral premalleolar bursitis develops on the dorsolateral aspect of the foot in people who sit on their feet for prolonged periods. Twenty-nine premalleolar bursae in 21 patients were diagnosed. The patients presented with one or more of the complaints of swelling, pain and difficulty in wearing shoes. One bursa was infected. Initial treatment was non-surgical. With avoidance of the sitting position, the problem resolved in eight of the sixteen patients who were followed. Four bursae were injected with cortisone, three without success. Six bursae were surgically excised, and four of them, with a minimum of one year follow-up were doing well. </jats:p>
