Acute cervical epidural abscess with concurrent calcium pyrophosphate deposition after cervical spinal surgery: A case report
CONCLUSION: An acute onset of SEA complicated with CPPD after cervical surgery has rarely been reported. The suppurative inflammation fostered by the crystal-induced inflammation may account for the acute symptomatology.PMID:38628534 | PMC:PMC11021091 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_740_2023 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)

Crystal induced arthropathies-a comparative study of 40 patients with apatite rheumatism, chondrocalcinosis and primary synovial chondromatosis
Pathol Oncol Res. 2024 Mar 5;30:1611454. doi: 10.3389/pore.2024.1611454. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTIntroduction: Apatite rheumatism (AR), chondrocalcinosis (Ch-C), and primary synovial chondromatosis (prSynCh) are regarded as distinct clinical entities. The introduction of the non-staining technique by Bély and Apáthy (2013) opened a new era in the microscopic diagnosis of crystal induced diseases, allowing the analysis of MSU (monosodium urate monohydrate) HA (calcium hydroxyapatite), CPPD (calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate) crystals, cholesterol, crystalline liquid lipid droplets, and other crystals in unstained sections ...
