ABSTRACT
Changes in the osteo-articular apparatus of the type of degenerative-dystrophic affections with a cystoid reconstruction, deforming osteoarthrosis, osteoartrhopathy, etc. were revealed in roentgenological examination of 60% of 65 patients suffering from diabetes mellitus examined. Changes in the osteo-articular apparatus were mostly revealed in elderly patients with diabetes of moderate severity and severe in combination with angio- and neuropathies and sensitivity disturbances. The detected changes, except diabetic osteoarthropathy were apparently nonspecific and subject to further study.
