Scope note: Degeneración crónica y progresiva de la porción que soporta la tensión en una articulación, con cambios hipertróficos pleomórficos en la periferia. Probablemente es una complicación de diversos trastornos neurológicos, en especial la TABES DORSAL, con pérdida de la sensibilidad que da lugar a relajación de las estructuras de sostén e inestabilidad crónica de la articulación.

Scope note: Chronic progressive degeneration of the stress-bearing portion of a joint, with bizarre hypertrophic changes at the periphery. It is probably a complication of a variety of neurologic disorders, particularly TABES DORSALIS, involving loss of sensation, which leads to relaxation of supporting structures and chronic instability of the joint.
