[Arthroscopic Synovectomy of the Wrist in Chondrocalcinosis].

Conclusions: Arthroscopic synovectomy of the wrist in patients with CPPD disease provides high patient satisfaction regardless of the radiologic stage. The procedure is atraumatic with low morbidity and high patient comfort. The Romano Classification should be supplemented by an additional early stage, SCAC 0. More often than suspected, CPPD disease may be responsible for wrist pain of unknown origin even in middle-aged patients. PMID: 27580439 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
