Joints are important for locomotion. This article collects tidbits about their pathology.
Prosthetic joint infection
General
- Bit of tissue come for frozen section to r/o infection.
Microscopic
Features:
- Neutrophils.
Various criteria exist.[1]
- Definitions suffer from HPFitis.
Feldman criteria
Athanasou criterion
Juxta-articular myxoma
General
- Classically present as a mass or with pain.[3]
Microscopic
Features:[3]
- Myxomatous stroma.
- +/-Cystic changes.
- Large nuclei with hyperchromasia and nuclear scalloping.[4]
