Hypermobility syndrome and its connection with nerve entrapment syndromes, the example of the thoracic outlet syndrome
Jiquelle, Carine ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Véle, František (referee)
ABSTRACT Background: Since its first mention by Kirk et al. in 1967 and its recognition as a full- fledged rheumatologic disorder, the hypermobility syndrome (HMS) has been increasingly investigated and reported in the scientific literature. Expeditiously renamed benign joint hypermobility syndrome in the patent absence of life-threatening complications, its relatively innocuous character has been progressively reconsidered. In fact, the HMS tends to date to be considered analogous to the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome-hypermobility type, a heritable disease of connective tissue, and therefore emerges as a chiefly rheumatologic disorder with possible widespread reverberations in practically all organs and systems. The condition thence goes beyond the sole involvement of the musculoskeletal system and is recurrently associated with seemingly-unrelated and more or less severe conditions (cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastro- intestinal…). However, neurologic implications of the hypermobility syndrome remain poorly documented, particularly those regarding the peripheral nervous system. Ranking amongst the afflictions of the latter, nerve entrapment syndromes (NES) comprehend a multitude of categories, notably the thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS). And if their pathological mechanisms are generally apprehended...

Physiotherapy in patients with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Příkazká, Tereza ; Heřmanová, Ivona (advisor) ; Pianelli Jahodová, Ivana (referee)
BACHELOR THESIS ABSTRACT First name and surname: Tereza Příkazká Supervisor: Mgr. Ivona Heřmanová Title of bachelor thesis: Physiotherapy in patients with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome Abstract: The thesis consists of theoretical and practical part. In the theory part, a literary research has been conducted, examining the general introduction of the topic. Later, this research is going deeper into themes such as aetiology, pathogenesis, classification and posibilities of the therapy which are individually dependent on the clinical aspect. The physiotherapy is the main agent of the conservative approach so the chosen physiotherapeutic approaches or concepts has been presented and later used in the practical part. Also, there was the elaboration of a case study of two probands with a venous form of TOS. The target of this was to influence the found pathology with adequately formed therapeutic unit. Then, the effectivity has been evaluated, which brought positive outcomes in the objective and subjective view. Tho following component was to create a prospectus with autotherapy. The discussion focused on the factors that contribute to the effectiveness of treatment, what is the cause of the disease and how to prevent this condition or prevent recurrence. The differential diagnosis and the consideration of arguments...
