Compressive cervical myelopathy due to massive periodontoid calcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition

Compressive cervical myelopathy due to massive periodontoid calcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition

77 year-old man suffering from psoriatic arthropathy presented with progressive myelopathy due to massive deposits of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals in peri-odontoid tissue. The magnetic resonance imaging and computer tomographic pictures of the involved site are shown and discussed. The c...
