Degenerative joint disease

Current Diagnostic Pathology, 2002
Abstract Degenerative joint disease, or osteoarthritis, despite being a significant medical problem and frequently operated upon, results in relatively little work for the general histopathologist. Histopathologists will most often encounter specimens where the case is clinically or radiologically unusual.

Experimental degenerative temporomandibular joint disease

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1994
As a possible cause of osteoarthrotic changes of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), trauma has often been suggested in the literature. Very few authors have tried to test the reliability of this theory by animal experiments. Sixty Wistar albino rats, divided into two main groups, were used in this investigation.

Degenerative Joint Diseases

2000
Degenerative changes in the joints are so very frequently encountered that clinicians (orthopedists, surgeons, internists) as well as radiologists and pathologists are always coming across them. In the majority of cases these are the signs of wear and tear which greatly increase in old age.

Pathogenesis of degenerative joint disease

Equine Veterinary Journal, 1987
Summary Proteoglycan degradation is central to the development of degenerative joint disease. Proteoglycans may be degraded by lysosomal enzymes from chondrocytes, synoviocytes or leucocytes. Collagen and matrix degradation occurs either by direct damage or due to degrading enzymes released into synovial fluid.

Degenerative Joint Disease

1985
Degenerative joint disease may affect the synovial joints of the peripheral and axial skeleton (osteoarthritis) as well as the fibrocartilaginous intervertebral discs, particularly in the cervical and lumbar areas of the spine (spondylosis). While osteoarthritis and spondylosis frequently coexist and share similar aetiologies, it is customary to ...

Iatrogenic Degenerative Joint Disease

2017
The most important consideration in the treatment of the temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) patient is making a proper diagnosis and selecting an appropriate treatment using evidence-based guidelines and algorithms. The approach to treatment should include strategies to educate the patient about their disease process, the current stage of that ...

Degenerative Acromioclavicular Joint Disease

2013
The prevalence of the acromioclavicular (AC) joint osteoarthritis (OA) among general population is very high. We can distinguish a primary and secondary form. The first is related to some risk factors, such as age, even though it has been widely demonstrated that the AC joint undergoes early degenerative changes after the third decade of life ...

Degenerative joint disease.

American family physician, 1986
Management of degenerative joint disease depends on the nature of the process and distribution of the joint disease. Simple modalities such as rest or exercise may be appropriate. Analgesics have a role to play, as do anti-inflammatory drugs and intraarticular corticosteroid injections.

Severe Degenerative Joint Disease

JAMA, 1977
Severe degenerative joint disease developed in three adults with mild to moderately severe hemophilia A, as judged by the clinical course and by levels of factor VIII coagulant. Bilateral total hip arthroplasty was required in one patient, unilateral hip arthroplasty in the second, and a recommendation for bilateral knee replacement in the third.
