Abstract

This review focuses on several recent clinically-related observations concerning Calcium Pyrophosphate Deposition Disease (CPPDD). Developments include new information on the epidemiology of idiopathic CPPDD in aging, on familial CPPDD, and on associated conditions that predispose to secondary CPPDD. Factors that may precipitate pseudogout, including the use of intra-articular hyaluronan and systemic G-CSF, are also discussed.
