Clinical features of 22 cases with ?Inter-Sterno-Costo-Clavicular Ossification?

Abstract: We present 22 cases with inter-sterno-costoclavicular ossification. Clinical and pathological findings show that abnormal ossification observed in this situation is due to non-suppurative chronic inflammation of the soft tissues around the sterno-costo-clavicular region such as the costo-clavicular ligament. We have classified X-ray findings into three stages according to the extent of the ossification; localized, generalized, and hyperostotic, and show that the disease progressed in this sequence.

“…The present study confirmed these associations within the different forms of seronegative arthritides. Vertebral sclerosis and spondylodiskitis were seen predominantly in patients with PPP, an association occasionally noticed by others [16,40,44]. Pronounced paravertebral ossifications either occurred together with PPP lesions or as part of ReA, a relation noticed in only one previous study [42].…”

“…Four radiographic different types of associated spinal lesions have been described. Spondylodiskitis with vertebral sclerosis and sometimes also syndesmophytes or paravertebral ossifications [12,13,16,39,40,44], AS-like lesions [9, 12, 14, 35-37, 42, 46], parasyndesmophytes or pronounced paravertebral ossifications resembling those of "diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis" (DISH) [3,10,12,13,28,29,36,42,44], and diffuse metastasis-like vertebral sclerosis [22]. The present study confirmed these associations within the different forms of seronegative arthritides.…”

“…According to this system , our case had stage 3 disease. Many patients with sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis also have abnormalities of the spine and/or sacroiliac joints such as ankylosing spondylitis of cervical , thoracic , and lumbar segments of the vertebral column (32 %), ankylosing hyperostosis (DISH) (23 %), and sacroiliities (27 %) (5 …”

“…Sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis , since its first report in 1974 by Sonozaki and co-workers , has been increasingly recognized by radiologists and rheumatologists (1)(2)(3)(4)(5). Sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis is a benign disease of unknown cause and pathogenesis (1) W e report characteristic findings of RI and CT with plain film and clinical features in a case of sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis…”

“…In a Swedish study six of 13 patients had concomitant palmar-plantar pustulosis (Bjorksten et al 1978). Sonozaki et al (1979) presented 22 patients with "inter-sterno-costo-clavicular ossification", many of whom also had signs of spondylitis, and found that not less than 13 also had a history or symptoms of palmar-plantar pustulosis.…”
