Title: [Sudeck's bone atrophy after leg phlebography - a case study of an unusual complication (author's transl)]. Author: Grünberg G. Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1982 Aug; 35(8):307-8.

Sudeck's bone atrophy had obviously developed on account of a specific vegetative reactivity, subsequent to the local inflammation.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
