A Review of Uric Acid, Crystal Deposition Disease, and Gout
There has been increased interest in gout in both academic and clinical practice settings. Several reasons may explain this. The prevalence of both hyperuricemia and gout has risen in the last decades in developed countries and therefore the burden of gout has increased. The association of hyperuricemia and gout with cardiovascular outcomes and the opportunity of further benefits of interventio...
متن کاملCalcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition disease: diagnosis and treatment
Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease (CPPD) is an inflammatory arthritis produced by the deposition of calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals in the synovium and periarticular soft tissues. It is the third most common inflammatory arthritis. Diagnosis is suspected on the basis of the clinical picture and radiographic/laboratory findings. The reference standard for the diagno...
متن کاملPhosphoglyceride crystal deposition disease mimicking a malignant tumor
A 45-year-old woman who had undergone surgical repair for an atrial septal defect at the age of 7 years presented with multiple anterior mediastinal masses. Positron-emission tomography (PET) with 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (FDG) revealed high uptake in the masses. The findings were interpreted as mediastinal malignant tumors with dissemination. Biopsy was performed, and the histological d...
متن کاملCalcium Pyrophosphate Dihydrate Crystal Deposition Disease of the Sternoclavicular Joint
Deposition of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals in the articular structures affects predominantly temporomandibular, knee, hip, spine, and wrist joints, and is a rare condition, often mimicking malignancy. Sternoclavicular joint is extremely rarely involved. We present a patient with swelling of the right upper extremity, in whom on computed tomography a mass posterior to the ster...
متن کاملCalcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease of the temporomandibular joint.
A case of a 74-year-old woman with calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is presented. This disease rarely involves the TMJ and is not usually considered in the differential diagnosis of TMJ disorders. To our knowledge, only 23 cases have been reported in the literature and only four without any destructive changes of the condyle as in t...
