Calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease. [PDF]
Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease is a consequence of the immune response to the pathological presence of calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals inside joints, which causes acute or chronic inflammatory arthritis. CPPD is strongly associated with cartilage degradation and osteoarthritis, although the direction of causality is unclear.

Pseudogout and Calcium Pyrophosphate Disease [PDF]
History of present illness: A 53-year-old male presented with worsening right knee pain and swelling over the past 48 hours. He denied recent trauma to the knee, history of IV drug use, and recent illness. He had no history of diabetes, immunodeficiency,

Imaging and management of calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease. [PDF]
The radiological manifestations of calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) revolve around two main axes: the asymptomatic form and CPPD disease. The latter is a consequence of an immune response to calcium phosphate crystals. Chondrocalcinosis is broadly considered the radiographic manifestation of CPPD regardless of whether it is asymptomatic or ...

Pseudogout of the lumbar spine
Calcium pyrophosphate deposition involves deposition of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals in various joints throughout the body. The term “pseudogout” refers to an acute attack of calcium pyrophosphate crystal-induced arthritis.

Bioceramics Based on Calcium Pyrophosphate
Ceramic samples based on b-calcium pyrophosphate b-Ca2P2O7 were prepared using firing at 900, 1000, and 1100 oC from powders of g-calcium pyrophosphate g-Ca2P2O7 with preset molar ratios Ca/P=1; 0,975 and 0,95. To prepare powders of g-calcium pyrophosphate g-Ca2P2O7 with preset molar ratio Ca/P=1; 0,975 and 0,95 powder mixtures based on calcium lactate

Calcium Pyrophosphate Deposition Disease [PDF]
CPPD disease (also called pseudogout) is common, especially among persons older than 60 years of age, but it is underrecognized and undertreated. This review summarizes the diagnosis and treatment of the acute and chronic forms of this crystal-induced arthritis.
