Described is a case of acute calcific quadriceps tendinitis which presented as monoarticular arthritis. A survey of general hospital patients revealed a 7% incidence of calcification of the superior patellar tendon. The most common concurrent abnormality was degenerative joint disease (94%); concomitant chondrocalcinosis was not seen. The "patellar whisker" is a relatively common x-ray finding that may be the clue to an uncommon cause of acute arthritis.
本文描述了一例表现为单关节炎的急性钙化性股四头肌肌腱炎病例。对综合医院患者的一项调查显示,髌上肌腱钙化的发生率为7%。最常见的并发异常是退行性关节病(94%);未发现并发软骨钙质沉着症。“髌须”是一种相对常见的X线表现,可能是急性关节炎罕见病因的线索。
