Moreover, the attachments are generally head to tail â that is the 1-carbon of the first isoprene is connected to the 4-carbon of the adjacent isoprene. Already discussed examples of such molecules include the polymers, natural rubber and gutta percha.
Reviewed by Walter Erhardt, MD. Capsular contracture is a breast augmentation complication that develops when internal scar tissue forms a tight or constricting capsule around a breast implant, contracting it until it becomes misshapen and hard. As a result, the breast may feel painful and stiff, and the capsule may affect the appearance or shape of the breast.
Summary of Thickening of the inferior glenohumeral capsule: an ultrasound sign for shoulder capsular contracture.. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this retrospective study was to measure the inferior glenohumeral capsule thickness of shoulders clinically affected by capsular contracture by comparison to the contralateral asymptomatic side. METHODS:ESULTS: The average thickness was 4.0 mm in shoulders with capsular contracture vs. 1.3 mm in asymptomatic contralateral shoulders (P. CONCLUSION: The thickness of the inferior capsule is measurable through ultrasound examination and appears to be increased in shoulders with capsular contracture.
