Pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee in a patient with Paget's disease of the adjacent femoral bone.

A 49-year-old male patient, diagnosed as having Paget's disease involving the lumbar vertebrae and both femora, felt persistent pain and swelling in the left knee after trauma. A synovectomy was performed. Clinical and histological findings led to the diagnosis of pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee joint. Only one previous case of this association has been reported. A common aetiology for both diseases is discussed, and traumatic factors should be considered in the aetiology of the association.

[Evaluation and significance of circulating immunocomplexes and their correlation with other immunologic parameters in connective tissue diseases].

The presence of circulating immunocomplexes (CIC) was evaluated in several collagen diseases and in a control group of 100 healthy individuals. Three methods were used for their detection: binding to C1q in solid phase, binding to conglutinin in solid phase, and measurement of the serum capacity to solubilize an experimental immunocomplex. In the group of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) significant differences were found for the three techniques (p less than 0.001) and also for activity (p less than 0.001). The most sensitive method was binding to C1q. The sensitivity of the three techniques for CIC was very low in the group of patients with systemic sclerosis, and the highest rate of positive results was found with binding to C1q (10%). In the group with hypersensitivity vasculitis and polyarteritis nodosa CIC were found in 71% of cases, more than one method being positive in 50%. The highest sensitivity was obtained with the conglutinin method (48%). In patients with temporal arteritis, significant differences were only found for conglutinin binding method (p less than 0.001), with low rates of positivity.

Arthritis mutilans, tumoral calcinosis, Raynaud's phenomenon and Sjögren's syndrome.

We report a female patient who over 25 years developed a progressive deforming arthropathy involving both hands without anatomical or functional abnormalities of other joints. Raynaud's phenomenon, lung fibrosis and Sjögren's syndrome. She had multiple soft tissue and periarticular calcification particularly evident in the lower extremities, shoulders, hands, fingers and back.
