| cervical spondylosis | Degenerative joint disease of the cervical (neck) spine. Results in a progressive erosion of the cartilage which line the weight bearing joints in the neck. Progressive bony calcification can lead to obstruction of exiting nerve roots resulting in neurological symptoms. (27 Sep 1997) |
|---|---|
| hyperostotic spondylosis | A form of degenerative arthritis characteristically associated with flowing calcification along the sides of the vertebrae of the spine and commonly with inflammation (tendinitis) and calcification of the tendons at their attachments points to bone. Because areas of the spine and tendons can become inflamed, antiinflammatory medications (NSAIDs), such ibuprofen, can be helpful in both relieving pain and inflammation. Also called Forestier's disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| spondylosis | Ankylosis of the vertebra; often applied non-specifically to any lesion of the spine of a degenerative nature. Origin: G. Spondylos, vertebra (05 Mar 2000) |
| arthritis deformans | A systemic disease, seen more commonly in women which affects connective tissue, particularly the synovial tissue within joints. Arthritis is the main clinical feature and involves many joints in the body, especially those of the hand and feet. In this disease, there is thickening of the soft tissues around the joints and extension of the synovial tissue over articular cartilage (which becomes eroded). A chronic and progressive course is common with joint deformities and disability. Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is a variant which affects children. (27 Sep 1997) |
| peritonitis deformans | A chronic peritonitis in which thickening of the membrane and contracting adhesions cause shortening of the mesentery and kinking and retraction of the intestines. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hyperostosis corticalis deformans | Marked irregular thickening of the skull and bone cortex, with thickening and widening of the shafts of long bones and high serum alkaline phosphatase; autosomal recessive inheritance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spondylitis deformans | Arthritis and osteitis deformans involving the spinal column; marked by nodular deposits at the edges of the intervertebral disks with ossification of the ligaments and bony ankylosis of the intervertebral articulations, it results in a rounded kyphosis with rigidity. Synonym: Bechterew's disease, poker back, Strumpell's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dystonia musculorum deformans | A genetic, environmental, or idiopathic disorder, usually beginning in childhood or adolescence, marked by muscular contractions that distort the spine, limbs, hips, and sometimes the cranial-innervated muscles. The abnormal movements are increased by excitement and, at least initially, abolished by sleep. The musculature is hypertonic when in action, hypotonic when at rest. Hereditary forms usually begin with involuntary posturing of the foot or hand (autosomal recessive form ) or of the neck or trunk (autosomal dominant form ); both forms may progress to produce contortions of the entire body. Synonym: progressive torsion spasm, torsion disease of childhood, torsion dystonia, Ziehen-Oppenheim disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| osteitis deformans | This is a disease of bone that initially results in the excessive resorption of bone (by osteoclasts) followed by the replacement of normal bone marrow with vascular and fibrous tissue. Many patients are asymptomatic and diagnosed by routine X-rays. (27 Sep 1997) |
| osteochondritis deformans juvenilis | perthes disease |
| osteochondritis deformans juvenilis dorsi | Osteochondrosis of the vertebral epiphyses in children. (12 Dec 1998) |
| osteochondrodystrophia deformans | Term used for a group of disorders of bone and cartilage which includes Morquio syndrome and similar conditions. Synonym: osteochondrodystrophia deformans, osteochondrodystrophy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endarteritis deformans | Endarteritis with atheromatous patches and calcareous deposits. (05 Mar 2000) |
