  • Title: [Paget's disease of bone associated with autoimmune thyroiditis and joint chondrocalcinosis].
    Author: Punzi L, Avossa M, De Zambiasi P, Volpe A, Cesaro G, Schiavon F, Todesco S.
    Journal: Rev Rhum Ed Fr; 1994 May; 61(5):354-6. PubMed ID: 7812291.
    Abstract:
    A case of scapular Paget's disease of bone with concurrent autoimmune thyroiditis and articular chondrocalcinosis is reported. Although infrequent, this combination suggests the involvement of common pathogenic mechanisms: thyroiditis and Paget's disease may stem from the same viral infection and/or autoimmune disorder, whereas chondrocalcinosis may be the consequence of thyroiditis-related hypothyroidism. In contrast, the association of Paget's disease and chondrocalcinosis may be fortuitous, since both disorders are common.
