When can calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease be considered a polymyalgia rheumatica mimicking disease? [PDF]
Introduction Similarly to polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease is common among older people. Calcium pyrophosphate deposition can present in several forms, including proximal manifestations associated with raised ...

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).

Lumbar Intraspinal Calcium Pyrophosphate Deposition: A Comprehensive Case Study [PDF]
Introduction Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease is characterized by calcium pyrophosphate crystals in hyaline and fibrocartilage. Chondrocalcinosis, a radiographic hallmark for CPPD, becomes more prevalent with age.

Therapy for CPPD: Options and Evidence
Current evidence and accumulated experience for the management of calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (CPPD) are presented.Contrary to other rheumatic inflammatory conditions that account for high interest and growing research, advances in treating CPPD are still very limited and mostly derive from those achieved in gout.

Advances in imaging for the assessment of calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease [PDF]
Calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) deposition (CPPD) disease is a common form of inflammatory arthritis. Despite its prevalence, it’s an under-studied condition and its diagnosis is still challenging.
