Tendon involvement in a case of ochronosis
J Rheumatol.
1982 Jul-Aug.
Abstract
A patient with severe skeletal and systemic involvement due to ochronosis is reported. On radiographic examination there was a linear density attached to the left lesser trochanter. The possible role of ochronotic pigment deposition in tendon, leading to metaplastic bone formation, is discussed.
