Erkrankungen der Fesselbeugesehnenscheide – eine diagnostische und therapeutische Herausforderung

Die Erkrankungen der Fesselbeugesehnenscheide stellen im Praxisalltag immer wieder eine Herausforderung dar. Der folgende Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit der Diagnosestellung und der daraus resultierenden Therapie bei Lahmheiten, deren Ursache auf den Bereich der Fesselbeugesehnenscheide lokalisiert ist.
