A Combat Journey of Rehabilitation in Pre- and Post-chemotherapy for Esophagus Carcinoma.

Esophageal cancer is a malignant epithelial alteration that takes place in the middle or upper part of the esophagus. Given the escalating population of individuals who have successfully overcome esophageal cancer, the significance of addressing disease- and treatment-associated complaints and symptoms is increasingly pertinent. This highlights the necessity of interventions meant to enhance quality of life (QOL).

Integrated Physical Therapy in a Unique Case of Holstein-Lewis Fracture With Radial Palsy: A Case Report.

The term "Holstein-Lewis fracture" describes a spiral fracture that occurs in the shaft of the humerus at its distal third, which has been linked to radial nerve palsy in adults, and operative treatment is the preferred method of treating the trapped nerve at the fracture site. This paper describes a clinical case involving a 20-year-old male patient demonstrating a humeral fracture syndrome accompanied by complications associated with radial nerve palsy. After the necessary investigation, he was diagnosed with a Holstein-Lewis fracture with radial nerve paralysis; he underwent open reduction internal fixation (ORIF), after which he was referred to physical therapy.

Gait Training With Motor Relearning Program in Conjunction With Functional Electrical Stimulation in Quadriparesis Secondary to Cervical and Lumbar Myelopathy.

Degenerative cervical myelopathy is a frequently encountered age-related pathology following compression of the spinal cord. This case report delineates the clinical manifestation of cervical and lumbar myelopathy in a 78-year-old male patient, characterised by chief complaints of difficulty in moving bilateral upper and lower extremities and difficulty in bed mobility. Motor impairment can manifest in three different presentations, which are paraparesis, hemiparesis, or quadriparesis.

Neurophysiotherapy in Grade II Diffuse Astrocytoma: A Case Report.

Diffuse astrocytoma is a slow, progressive, and invasive tumor that develops from astrocytes and there is no discernible boundary between tumor and brain cells. We present a case of a 48-year-old woman with diffuse astrocytoma who experienced sudden left-sided weakness, multiple convulsive episodes, and vomiting. The patient underwent surgery for a left occipital mini craniotomy with complete tumor removal through a titanium burr hole.

Managing Complex Foot Crush Injuries: A Case Report.

A serious kind of fractured foot ailment is a foot crush injury. Foot injury commonly happens in accidents involving transportation or the workplace, such as automobile accidents, big objects falling on the foot, or heavy machinery running over the foot. Foot crush injuries are more severe than regular foot fractures.

Effectiveness of Physiotherapy Intervention in Guillain Barre Syndrome: A Case Report.

Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is described by a wide range of motor impairment, flaccidity, hyporeflexia, and progressive and ascending flaccid paralysis. Group B , also known as and , are Gram-positive bacteria also known as the leading cause of GBS; its variants are acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN), acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy (AMSAN), acute inflammatory demyelinating neuropathy (AIDP), and Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS). A 20-year-old girl came with complaints of generalized weakness, fever and pain over the lower limb.

Physical Rehabilitation Post-surgery in a Distal Femur Fracture Post Removal of Implant.

A complicated orthopaedic injury known as a comminuted distal femur fracture occurs when the lower portion of the femur bone breaks into several pieces close to the knee joint. Distal femur fractures are more commonly caused by injuries to the supracondylar and intercondylar regions. Managing comminuted distal femur fractures is a significant clinical challenge.

Physiotherapy Approach for Treating Bronchopneumonia: A Case Report.

The term bronchopneumonia describes an inflammation of the bronchioles centered in the lungs. A male patient, aged 77, complained of dyspnea for six months. The Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) Dyspnea Scale showed grade 2 dyspnea, chest pain, cold, and fever for seven days.

Rehabilitation Following Above-Knee Amputation in a Pediatric Osteosarcoma Patient: A Case Report.

The earliest stages of osteosarcomas are primitive mesenchymal cells. It generally occurs close to the long bones' metaphysis and typically affects the long bones, such as the arm and leg. This case report underscores the pivotal role of physiotherapy in the rehabilitation of a 14-year-old male diagnosed with osteosarcoma, who underwent above-knee amputation.

Rehabilitation Towards Functional Independence in a Patient With Metastatic Carcinoma of Lung and Paraplegia: A Case Report.

Lung cancer metastasis is a complex process. This case report describes a case of a 58-year-old man with carcinoma of the lung with bony metastasis to spine T9-T11 with the chief complaints of inability to move both lower limbs, breathlessness, and difficulty in bed mobility. Motor impairments may transpire in three different forms, which are paraplegia, hemiplegia, or quadriplegia.
