Go to external page http://www.ebi.ac.uk/efo/EFO_1001378

Chronic progressive degeneration of the stress-bearing portion of a joint, with bizarre hypertrophic changes at the periphery. It is probably a complication of a variety of neurologic disorders, particularly tabes dorsalis, involving loss of sensation, which leads to relaxation of supporting structures and chronic instability of the joint. (Dorland, 27th ed) [ http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D001177 ]
