Abstrakt: |
To investigate the association between chondrocalcinosis (CC) and osteoarthritis (OA), 338 joint specimens were examined histologically (55 knees and 84 hips surgically resected because of idiopathic OA, 106 control knees obtained postmortem, and 93 fractured hips). The risk for CC in the OA knees was sixfold that of the age- and sex-adjusted control sections. CC occurred much less frequently in the hip than in the knee; the association with OA was less clear-cut. It was not possible to resolve by statistical analysis which of the two pathological processes was the horse and which was the cart. |
