Familial articular chondrocalcinosis in Spain.
One hundred and one first degree relatives of 35 patients with chondrocalcinosis were examined for the presence of familial disease. Eleven subjects from nine families showed radiological chondrocalcinosis, a prevalence of familial disease of 26%. Two different patterns of disease were noted--the older generation was more commonly affected, and the younger generation and second degree relatives...
متن کاملChondrocalcinosis, osteophytes and osteoarthritis.
An association between osteoarthritis (OA) and radiographic evidence of chon-drocalcinosis (CC) has been recognised for years. Crystals of calcium pyrophos-phate dihydrate (CPPD) may be found in synovial fluid from patients with OA who are relatively asymptomatic as well as from those who are experiencing an acute flare up of joint pain due to an attack of pseudogout. Whether CC is the cause of...
متن کاملDestructive arthropathy in chondrocalcinosis articularis.
It is now well recognized that idiopathic chondrocalcinosis articularis, as well as being associated with acute episodes of pyrophosphate arthropathy, may lead to premature degenerative changes in the joints involved. Some workers have also made occasional reference to the presence of juxta-articular osteolytic lesions (McCarty, Kohn, and Faires, 1962; Currey, 1970.) More recently there have be...
متن کاملNew knowledge of chondrocalcinosis.
There are three varieties of cartilage-hyaline, elastic, and fibrocartilage. Hyaline cartilage is the precursor of bone. In the adult it is mainly found at bone ends, forming the load-bearing surface of synovial joints. Extra-articular fibrocartilages such as those of the trachea and ribs often calcify with advancing age. Articular cartilage, however, usually remains free from mineral deposits....

In this retrospective study of 57 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism who underwent parathyroidectomy, the overall incidence of chondrocalcinosis was 40%. Neither joint symptoms nor chondrocalcinosis regressed after the operation. In several patients the condition appeared to deteriorate both clinically and radiologically after the operation, while in a few both the chondrocalcinosis and ...
