The mallet finger is a stable injury. If the patient presents with lack of active extension of the DIP joint, then splinting of the finger in extension or slight hyperextension for 8 weeks is the treatment of choice.
Types of Stroke. The most common type of stroke, accounting for almost 80 percent of all strokes, is caused by a clot or other blockage within an artery leading to the brain. An intracerebral hemorrhage is a type of stroke caused by the sudden rupture of an artery within the brain. Blood is then released into the brain compressing brain structures. A subarachnoid hemorrhage is also a type of stroke caused by the sudden rupture of an artery.
The most common type of eye stroke is called central retinal artery occlusion. It can leave you with little useful vision. You might be able to see a hand move, but not much more. Rarely, your vision might return on its own. If you have the less serious blockage in the smaller arteries, your vision may go back to normal about 80% of the time. Diagnosis
