  • severe trismus as a complication of Cerebrovascular Accident a case report
    Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2005
    Co-Authors: Vivek Kadyan, Albert C Clairmont, Michael T Engle, Sam C Colachis
    Abstract:

    Abstract Kadyan V, Clairmont AC, Engle M, Colachis SC. Severe trismus as a complication of Cerebrovascular Accident: a case report. Spastic hypertonia is a common sequelae after a Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA) and is a component of an upper motoneuron lesion. Management of spastic hypertonia may involve the use of centrally acting agents, peripheral blockade, and ablative therapies. We report a case of spastic hypertonia leading to severe trismus after CVA that was successfully treated with botulinum toxin type A. Severe trismus is a potentially life-threatening condition that may lead to permanent functional impairment if not promptly diagnosed and treated. Using electromyography for botulinum toxin muscle selection in this case appears to have helped decrease the dose of botulinum toxin given as well as minimize potential side effects.

  • management of shoulder pain after a Cerebrovascular Accident or traumatic brain injury
    Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2015
    Co-Authors: Jonathan R Manara, James Taylor, Matthew Nixon
    Abstract:

    Background Shoulder pain after a Cerebrovascular Accident or traumatic brain injury is a common but often under-recognized problem. It is due to a number of causes including inferior subluxation, spasticity, adhesive capsulitis, and heterotopic ossification. Many of these are amenable to surgical intervention. Methods Literature review of current evidence. Results This article shows that there are multiple treatment options in this group of patients, and it is important to understand these as clinicians in delivering quality care to this complex group of patients. Conclusion This review article describes how careful clinical assessment can differentiate between causes of shoulder pain and guide best management.
