Enthesopathies are frequently found in rheumatic inflammatory diseases, but can be observed also in absence of systemic inflammation. Aging, overuse, and microtraumas can be responsible for enthesis-degenerative phenomena. Despite that Achilles enthesis is the more frequently affected, no systematic
Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) is a common but often unrecognized systemic disorder observed mainly in the elderly. DISH is diagnosed when the anterior longitudinal ligament of the spine is ossified on at least four contiguous spinal levels or when multiple peripheral enthesopathies
The tibialis posterior tendon is the largest and anteriormost tendon in the medial ankle. It produces plantar flexion and supination of the ankle and stabilizes the plantar vault. Sonographic assessment of this tendon is done with high-frequency, linear-array transducers; an optimal examination
Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) is a common systemic disorder characterised by the ossification of the anterior longitudinal spinal ligament involving at least three contiguous vertebrae and by diffuse extraspinal enthesopathies. The condition is associated with the male sex and with
Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH), also known as Forestier-Rotes-Querol disease, is characterized by the ossification of the entheses (i.e., enthesopathy). The diagnosis of DISH requires at least two (according to Forestier) or three (according to Resnick) contiguous intervertebral
BACKGROUND
Enthesopathy-associated pain does not only occur in athletes but also in persons of average daily activity levels. Repetitive microtrauma within the pes anserinus may lead to chronic inflammation and later result in development of degenerative changes in this region. It is commonly
OBJECTIVE
To describe and identify factors, in clinical practice, that might be useful increasing the index of suspicion for diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH), at a relatively young age.
METHODS
A group of 18 patients with DISH (12.8) who were diagnosed before the age of 50 years
Given that entheses are sites of high mechanical stress that concentrate the forces of large contracting muscles down onto a small footprint of bone contact, it was recognized nearly 60 decades ago that stress and injury at such sites may play a role in the pathogenesis of mechanically related
