Electrical and ultrasound stimulation for scaphoid fractures.

abstract：:PNA is one of many treatments available for the treatment of hand contractures resulting from Dupuytren’s disease. It is generally recommended for elderly patients with less severe contractures who desire a less invasive procedure, or as a first stage to delay surgery in those with more aggressive disease. The procedu...
