Hypertrophic synovitis and osteoarthritis of the cervical facet joint. Report of two cases.

We report two cases of cervical facet joint osteoarthritis associated with radiculopathy. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a halo of enhancing soft tissue surrounding the facet joints and narrowing the neural foramen. Hypertrophic synovial masses were discovered and removed at the time of operation in each case, resulting in relief of the radicular symptoms.

The impact of regulation on the administrative structure of hospitals: toward an analytic framework.

The dramatic and recent regulatory changes in the hospital industry (e.g., TEFRA , DRG-based reimbursement) have given added impetus to the analytic framework developed here. Regulation will play an increasingly important role in the future of hospitals, affecting not only fiscal operations, but organizational and administrative arrangements as well. The conceptual framework developed in this article will be refined and augmented through empirical research. Healthcare executives will then have a stronger basis for adapting organizationally to changes in their regulatory environments, thereby increasing the effectiveness and survival of their institutions.
