Vertebral artery syndrome is a collective term that encompasses a number of cerebral, cardiovascular and autonomic syndromes resulting from lesions of the sympathetic plexus of the vertebral artery, deformation of its wall or lumen changes caused by cervical spine disorders. Manual therapy is one of the recognized methods of treatment for the said condition. This study discusses the possibility of applying manual therapy combined with shock wave therapy in cases of vertebral artery syndrome resistant to other methods of treatment.

Despite numerous methods of treatment, the therapeutic efficiency of erectile dysfunction in the patients with chronic prostatitis is 45-56%, due to the fact that pharmacological preparations in a greater percentage of cases don´t penetrate into the prostate gland and cause side effects. Therefore, some researchers suggest the use of physiotherapy. Currently, highly effective method of treatment of erectile dysfunction in the patients with chronic prostatitis is a shock-wave therapy, the main clinical effects which are analgesic effect, activating microcirculation and neo-angiogenesis, stimulation of metabolic processes, reducing the severity of fibro-sclerotic changes, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects. The authors aim of the study is pathogenetically justify the use of the shock-wave therapy of erectile dysfunction in patients with chronic prostatitis with the positions of system-structural analysis. The study involved 40 patients with chronic prostatitis with erectile dysfunction. On the basis of these studies the authors have shown that the shock- wave therapy is the pathogenetic therapy of chronic prostatitis, as has a direct effect on the prostate gland and vasodilator effect, reduces edema, leukocyte infiltration.

Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic systemic disease of the connective tissue which affects primarily joints and ligaments of the spine, peripheral joints and internal organs, causing progressive development of limited spinal mobility due to ankylosing of epiphyseal joints, formation of syndesmosis and calcification of vertebral ligaments. There are currently no methods that can completely cure or stop the progression of ankylosing spondylitis, however, manual therapy combined with shock- wave therapy is able to quickly, non-invasively, effectively, economically, safely and without side effects support patients, improving their quality of life, prolonging the duration of the remissions, reducing the frequency of relapses, significantly delaying the development of structural damage and the progression of bone ankylosis. This study discusses the effect of manual therapy combined with shock wave therapy on ankylosing spondylitis resistant to other treatments.

The purpose of this article is the desire of the author, based on his previous multiple years’ experience in treating the effects of mTBI, as well as his experience in treating the effects of combat concussions, to offer, in addition to the methods already described, his own vision of how to deal with the problem at hand. The method proposed lies in complex application of manual therapy combined with shock wave therapy. Their combined power, when applied within a unified method of treatment, enhances the effect of each of them, creating a synergy that allows to achieve qualitatively better and significantly more successful clinical results.

Abstract Background A high-riding vertebral artery (HRVA) is an intraosseous anomaly that narrows the trajectory for C2 pedicle screws. The prevalence of a HRVA is high in patients who need surgery at the craniovertebral junction, but reports about HRVAs among subaxial cervical spine disorders are limited. We sought to determine the prevalence of HRVAs among patients with subaxial cervical spine disorders to elucidate the potential risk for VA injury in subaxial cervical spine surgery. Methods We included 215 patients, 94 were with a main lesion from C3 to C7 (subaxial group) and 121 were with a main lesion from T1 to L5 (thoracolumbar group). A HRVA was defined as a maximum C2 pedicle diameter of <3.5mm on axial CT. The sex, age of patients, body mass index (BMI), osteoarthritis of the atlantoaxial (C1/2) facet joints and prevalence of a HRVA in the 2 groups were compared and logistic regression was used to identify the factors correlate with a HRVA. Results The patients of subaxial group were younger than those of the thoracolumbar group but the sex and BMI didn’t differ significantly between the 2 groups. The osteoarthritis grade of C1/2 facet joints of the subaxial group was statistically higher than the thoracolumbar group. A HRVA was found in 26 patients of 94 (27.7 %) in the subaxial group and in 19 of 121 (15.7%) in the thoracolumbar group. The prevalence of a HRVA in the subaxial group was statistically higher and logistic regression analysis indicated that osteoarthritis of C1/2 facet joints significantly correlated with HRVA. Conclusions The prevalence of a HRVA in patients with subaxial cervical spine disorders is higher than in those without cervical spine disorders, and osteoarthritis of C1/2 facet joints significantly correlated with a HRVA.

The mean osteoarthritis grade of the C1-2 facet joints of patients in the subaxial group was significantly higher than that in those in the thoracolumbar group. A HRVA was found in 26 patients of 94 (27.7 %) in the subaxial group and in 19 of 121 (15.7 %) in the thoracolumbar group. The prevalence of a HRVA in the subaxial group was significantly higher and osteoarthritis of C1-2 facet joints correlated significantly with a HRVA. Conclusions The prevalence of a HRVA in patients with subaxial cervical spine disorders is higher than in those without and osteoarthritis of the C1-2 facet joints is correlated with a HRVA.
