Application of extracorporeal shock waved therapy in chronic degenerative dystrophic diseases of loco-motor system

Abstract

In 87 patients with chronic degenerative dystrophic diseases of loco-motor system extracorporeal shock waved therapy was applied. Procedure of extracorporeal shock waved is given. Early and longterm results show high efficacy of this method. In 72 cases (82.76%) good results were obtained. 11 patients (12.64%) had satisfactory results and the remaining 4 patients (4.6%) had unsatisfactory ones.
