ABSTRACT
One hundred patients with clinical and radiographic evidence of osteoarthritis [OA] of the knee were studied for the presence of articular chondrocalcinosis [ACC]. 5 patients had ACC, 3 females and 2 males their age ranged from 55 to 75 years. 4 of then had unilateral ACC involving the lateral compartment of the right knee joint and only one had bilateral ACC. The prevalence of ACC increases with age. A possible relationship was found between the severity of radiographic changes of OA and the development of chondrocalcinosis
