Crystal Arthritis

Joint disorders that are characterized by accumulation of microcrystals in and around the joint including in the SYNOVIAL FLUID. They are classified according to the chemical nature of the crystals such as CALCIUM PYROPHOSPHATE; basic CALCIUM PHOSPHATES; and monosodium urate (see URIC ACID).

Research Excerpts

Overview

ExcerptReference
"Crystal arthritis is the most common type of inflammatory arthritis, and fractures contribute to significant morbidity and mortality, therefore, the relationship between the two is of clinical importance."( Chang, I; Gazeley, D, 2018)
"Crystal arthropathies are a group of joint disorders due to deposition of crystals in and around joints that lead to joint destruction and soft tissue masses."( Klauser, A; Reijnierse, M; Schwabl, C, 2022)
