Studies on Experimental Spondylosis Deformans

Studies of Paget's disease (osteitis deformans).

Arthritis Deformans

Dr. Jones has in this volume, with the sub-title, comprising " Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteo-arthritis, and Spondylitis Deformans," given a most excellent epitome of present-day knowledge of the diseases of the rheumatoid class. Agreeing with most modern workers, he makes a sharp distinction between the two' diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and osteo-arthritis, nor does he believe that the former m...

Prevalence of spondylosis deformans and estimates of genetic parameters for the degree of osteophytes development in Italian Boxer dogs1

The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of spondylosis deformans and to investigate genetic aspects of the degree of osteophytes development (DOD) in the Italian Boxer dog population. A total of 849 Boxer dogs was radiographed on the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral regions of the spine and scored for DOD. Grading of DOD was performed for all 20 intervertebral sites comprised within the ...

Osteochondrodystrophia Deformans with Mucopolysaccharidosis.

In 1929, Morquio described a peculiar skeletal disease, which he called familial osseous dystrophy. The disease develops gradually after the first year of life and is characterized by dwarfism with short neck, deformed chest with protruding sternum, deformed legs with pronounced genu valgum, and broad flat feet. The skull and face are normal and the intelligence is normal. The disease is often ...
