  • Title: Hip involvement in hereditary hemochromatosis: a clinical-pathologic study.
    Author: Duval H, Lancien G, Marin F, Ropars M, Guggenbuhl P, Chales G.
    Journal: Joint Bone Spine; 2009 Jul; 76(4):412-5. PubMed ID: 19535278.
    Abstract:
    Joint involvement occurs in about half the patients with hereditary hemochromatosis and may constitute the presenting manifestation. Joint damage is now the main cause of quality-of-life alterations in patients with hereditary hemochromatosis. The most common sites of involvement are the metacarpophalangeal joints and the hip. We report a case that illustrates the clinical, imaging-study, and pathological characteristics of hip disease in hereditary hemochromatosis.
