Arthritis (from Greek arthro-, joint + -itis, inflammation; plural:
arthritides) is a group of conditions where there is damage caused to the joints
of the body. Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in people over the age
of 55.
There are many
different forms of arthritis, each of which has a different cause. The most
common form of arthritis, osteoarthritis (also known as degenerative joint
disease) occurs following trauma to the joint, following an infection of the
joint or simply as a result of aging. Furthermore, there is emerging evidence
that abnormal anatomy may contribute to early development of osteoarthritis.
Other forms of arthritis are rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis, which are
autoimmune diseases in which the body is attacking itself. Septic arthritis is
caused by joint infection. Gouty arthritis is caused by deposition of uric acid
crystals in the joint that results in subsequent inflammation. Additionally,
there is a less common form of gout that is caused by the formation of
rhomboidal shaped crystals of calcium pyrophosphate. This form of gout is known
as pseudogout.
