The disease was named after them, though there had been a 1925 report by Georg Schmidt of a similar case, but with no images provided. Mueller believed the problem was congenital; Weiss believed it was an osteonecrotic process as the radiological findings were similar to Keinbock's disease , another osteonecrotic condition.
The term navicular bone or hand navicular bone was formerly used for the scaphoid bone, [1] one of the carpal bones of the wrist. The navicular bone in humans is located on the medial side of the foot, and articulates proximally with the talus, distally with the three cuneiform bones, and laterally with the cuboid.
An accessory navicular bone is an accessory bone of the foot that occasionally develops abnormally in front of the ankle towards the inside of the foot. This bone may be present in approximately 2-21% of the general population and is usually asymptomatic. [1] [2] [3] When it is symptomatic, surgery may be necessary.
Articular: Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (or, avascular necrosis of the femoral head in the hip), Köhler's disease (of the tarsal navicular bone of the foot), Freiberg's infraction (of the second or third metatarsal of the foot and less frequently the first or fourth; sometimes called Freiberg's Infraction or Freiberg's disease), [10] Blount's ...
Köhler disease (also spelled "Kohler" and referred to in some texts as Kohler disease I) [1] is a rare bone disorder of the foot found in children between six and nine years of age. The disease typically affects boys, but it can also affect girls. It was first described in 1908 by Alban Köhler (1874–1947), a German radiologist.
The cuneonavicular joint is a joint (articulation) in the human foot. It is formed between the navicular bone and the three cuneiform bones . The navicular and cuneiform bones are connected by dorsal and plantar ligaments .
Fire ants also sting humans, Frye says, which can cause small pus-filled bumps on the skin, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Other symptoms: Ant bites are typically painful and itchy.
There is additionally no strong research on the effectiveness of hip core decompression for people with sickle cell disease. [11] The disease's progression may be halted by transplanting nucleated cells from the bone marrow into avascular necrosis lesions after core decompression. However, much further research is needed to establish this ...
