  • Bursae Around the Knee Joints Priyank S Chatra Department of Radiology, Yenepoya Medical College, Mangalore, Karnataka, India
    MUSCULOSKELETAL RADIOLOGY Bursae around the knee joints Priyank S Chatra Department of Radiology, Yenepoya Medical College, Mangalore, Karnataka, India Correspondence: Dr. Priyank S. Chatra, Department of Radiology, Yenepoya Medical College, Deralakatte, Mangalore – 575 018, Karnataka, India. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A bursa is a fluid-filled structure that is present between the skin and tendon or tendon and bone. The main function of a bursa is to reduce friction between adjacent moving structures. Bursae around the knee can be classified as those around the patella and those that occur elsewhere. In this pictorial essay we describe the most commonly encountered lesions and their MRI appearance. Key words: Iliotibial bursa; infrapatellar bursa; pes anserine bursa Introduction and the gastrocnemius-semimembranosus bursa.

  • 'Dialysis Related Arthropathy': a Survey of 95 Patients Receiving Chronic Haemodialysis with Special Reference to 132 Microglobulin Related Amyloidosis
    Ann Rheum Dis: first published as 10.1136/ard.48.5.409 on 1 May 1989. Downloaded from Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 1989; 48, 409-420 'Dialysis related arthropathy': a survey of 95 patients receiving chronic haemodialysis with special reference to 132 microglobulin related amyloidosis N P HURST,' R VAN DEN BERG,' A DISNEY,2 M ALCOCK,3 L ALBERTYN,3 M GREEN,' AND V PASCOE4 From the 'Rheumatology Unit, the 2Renal Unit, the 3Department of Radiology, and the 4Department of Pathology, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Woodville, South Australia SUMMARY Ninety five patients receiving chronic haemodialysis (CHD) were surveyed to determine the prevalence of rheumatic disease and, where possible, its aetiology. At least three distinct rheumatic syndromes were identified-a group of patients with a syndrome consisting of large and medium joint synovial swelling, restricted hips and shoulders, tenosynovitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and bone cysts due to deposition of 132 microglobulin related amyloid (AMP2m); a second group with erosive azotaemic osteoarthropathy; and a third group with age related degenerative disease of small, large, and axial joints. The data presented suggest that in patients receiving CHD (a) the prevalence of AM2i2m deposition and the associated syndrome increases with duration of dialysis, but in patients who have been dialysed for more than 10 years the risk of developing AM2n2m is related to age; (b) AM2i2m deposition in subchondral cysts, but not synovium, causes joint destruction; also, AMp2m may be more prone to deposition in synovium of joints already damaged by other processes; (c) in the absence of synovial iron deposition synovial AM2n2m is not associated with an inflammatory infiltrate; (d) hyperparathyroidism and perhaps other factors such as synovial iron deposition are probably more important than AMgi2m as causes http://ard.bmj.com/ of peripheral joint degeneration and destructive spondyloarthropathy in patients receiving CHD.

  • Rotator Cuff and Subacromial Impingement Syndrome: Anatomy, Etiology, Screening, and Treatment
    Rotator Cuff and Subacromial Impingement Syndrome: Anatomy, Etiology, Screening, and Treatment The glenohumeral joint is the most mobile joint in the human body, but this same characteristic also makes it the least stable joint.1-3 The rotator cuff is a group of muscles that are important in supporting the glenohumeral joint, essential in almost every type of shoulder movement.4 These muscles maintain dynamic joint stability which not only avoids mechanical obstruction but also increases the functional range of motion at the joint.1,2 However, dysfunction of these stabilizers often leads to a complex pattern of degeneration, rotator cuff tear arthropathy that often involves subacromial impingement.2,22 Rotator cuff tear arthropathy is strikingly prevalent and is the most common cause of shoulder pain and dysfunction.3,4 It appears to be age-dependent, affecting 9.7% of patients aged 20 years and younger and increasing to 62% of patients of 80 years and older ( P < .001); odds ratio, 15; 95% CI, 9.6-24; P < .001.4 Etiology for rotator cuff pathology varies but rotator cuff tears and tendinopathy are most common in athletes and the elderly.12 It can be the result of a traumatic event or activity-based deterioration such as from excessive use of arms overhead, but some argue that deterioration of these stabilizers is part of the natural aging process given the trend of increased deterioration even in individuals who do not regularly perform overhead activities.2,4 The factors affecting the rotator cuff and subsequent treatment are wide-ranging. The major objectives of this exposition are to describe rotator cuff anatomy, biomechanics, and subacromial impingement; expound upon diagnosis and assessment; and discuss surgical and conservative interventions.

Abstract The term rotator cuff tear arthropathy is a broad spectrum pathology but it involves common characteristic features as rotator cuff tear, leading to glenohumeral joint arthritis and superior migration of the humeral head. Although there are several factors described causing rotator cuff tear arthropathy, the exact mechanism is still unknown because the rotator cuff tear arthropathy develops in only a group of patients with chronic rotator cuff tear. The aim of this article is to review pathophysiology of rotator cuff tear arthropathy, to explain the diagnostic features and to discuss the management of the disease. Keywords: Arthropathy; Glenohumeral joint; Articular fluid Rotator cuff tear not only plays a role at the beginning of the disease, but also a developed rotator cuff tear is a result of the inflammatory Introduction process.

Excess load above the ten- Achilles tendinopathy don's usual capacity is the primary cause of clinical presentation. Rotator cuff tendinopathy The propensity towards chronicity and the extended times for recovery and optimal function and the challenge of managing tendinopathy in a sporting competition season make this a difficult condition to treat. Tendinopathy is a heterogeneous condition in terms of its pathology and clinical presentation. Despite ongoing research, there is no consensus on tendon pathoetiology and the complex relationship between tendon pathology, pain and func- tion is incompletely understood. The diagnosis of tendinopathy is primarily clinical, with imaging only useful in special circum- stances. There has been a surge of tendinopathy treatments, most of which are poorly supported and warrant further exploration. The evidence supports a slowly progressive loading program, rather than complete rest, with other treatment modalities used as adjuncts mainly targeted at achieving pain relief.

  • Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis in Pediatric Population: Review of Literature and a Case Report Mohsen Karami*, Mehryar Soleimani and Reza Shiari
    Karami et al. Pediatric Rheumatology (2018) 16:6 DOI 10.1186/s12969-018-0222-4 CASEREPORT Open Access Pigmented villonodular synovitis in pediatric population: review of literature and a case report Mohsen Karami*, Mehryar Soleimani and Reza Shiari Abstract Background: Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare proliferative process in children that mostly affects the knee joint. Case Presentation: The study follows the case of a 3-year-old boy presenting recurrent patellar dislocation and PVNS. Due to symptoms such as chronic arthritis, he had been taking prednisolone and methotrexate for 6 months before receiving a definitive diagnosis. After a period of showing no improvements from his treatment, he was referred to our center and was diagnosed with local PVNS using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patient was treated for his patellar dislocation by way of open synovectomy, lateral retinacular release, and a proximal realignment procedure, with no recurrence after a 24-month follow-up. Conclusion: PVNS may appear with symptoms resembling juvenile idiopathic arthritis, thus the disease should be considered in differential diagnosis of any inflammatory arthritis in children. PVNS may also cause mechanical symptoms such as patellar dislocation. In addition to synovectomy, a realignment procedure can be a useful method of treatment.
