Title: Common granulomatous inflammations of the extremities. Author: KIRKPATRICK JE. Journal: Calif Med; 1960 Feb; 92(2):147-9. PubMed ID: 14409365.

The symptoms produced by these lesions are too frequently ascribed to trauma, particularly an insignificant bruise or imagined microtrauma. None of the rheumatic diseases-tenosynovitis, myositis, bursitis, fibrositis, gout, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis-has ever been created by slight or severe mechanical trauma in experimental animals or human beings.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
