Abstract

Abstract : Background: The OMERACT Ultrasound (US) in calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (CPPD) sub-task force has been working on the use of US in CPPD since 2014 first creating definitions for CPPD identification and then assessing the reliability[1]. Objectives: Objective of this study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy (truth) of US in CPPD. Methods: Consecutive patients waiting to undergo knee replacement surgery due to osteoarthritis were enrolled in 12 centres from 6 countries. Each patient underwent US examination of the knee, focusing on the menisci and the hyaline cartilage, the day prior to surgery, scoring each site for presence/absence of CPP as defined previously[1]. After surgery, the menisci and the condyles were retrieved and examined microscopically. Six samples were collected, both from the surface and from the internal part of menisci and cartilage trying to cover a large part of it. All slides were observed under transmitted light microscopy and by compensated polarised microscopy. A dichotomous score was given for the presence/absence of CPP. US and microscopic analysis were performed by different operators, blind to each other's findings. Sensitivity and specificity of US were calculated using microscopic findings as the gold standard. Results: 101 patients have been enrolled in the study. 33 patients have been excluded due to loss of anatomical pieces at surgery. The mean age of the remaining 68 pts was 71yo (±8), 44 women, 34 were affected by CPPD according to microscopy. Overall and per site diagnostic US accuracy results are presented in table 1 Conclusion: Our results demonstrate that US is an accurate exam for identification of CPPD. The best combination of sensitivity and specificity is achieved by examining the medial aspect of the knee. References: [1]Filippou G, Scirè CA, Adinolfi A, et al.
