Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease
Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition disease (CPPD) has been discovered for more than 30 years. Before CPPD crystals were confirmed, it was often confused with "gout"; later, it was also called "pseudogout". Because it shows calcification of articular cartilage on X-rays, it is also called "chondrocalcinosi". However, this disease may not show calcification of cartilage, so it is generally called "pyrophosphate arthropathy" at present.
