Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease – Treatment options
In contrast to gout, no disease-modifying therapies currently exist that reduce articular crystal deposition of calcium pyrophosphate crystals (CPPs). Treatment is aimed at ameliorating the inflammatory response and reducing the frequency and severity of clinical symptoms due to CPP deposition (CPPD).

Calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease: A case report with bilateral involvement of the temporomandibular joints and concurrence of psoriatic arthritis. [PDF]
Calcium pyrophosphate dehydrate deposition (CPDD) disease very rarely affects the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). It may resemble synovial chondromatosis, chondrosarcoma, chondroblastoma, or a parotid tumor. Clinical examination, CT, and MRI are important
