|
| Process of repair of articular cartilage demonstrated by histology and autoradiography with tritiated thymidine. |
|
| Diseases of the synovial joints, such as OA or rheumatoid arthritis, are due to destruction of articular cartilage and bony changes such as osteophyte formation. |
|
| Tophi cause erosions of joints, but also deposit in the skin and soft tissue, including the bursae, tendons and articular cartilage. |
|
|
|
| This occurs due to the deposition of ochronotic pigment in the intervertebral discs and articular cartilage of the large joints. |
