title: [Adhesive (retractile) capsulitis of the hip joint in diabetes mellitus. An x-ray histomorphological synopsis].
abstract: Adhesive (retractile) capsulitis of the hip joint is a rare complication (association) of (juvenile) diabetes mellitus. The clinical features, plain radiographic and CT findings and histomorphological appearances of this condition are described and attention is drawn to changes in the elastic tissue in the fibrosed capsule. Three diagnostic radiological features have been defined; in their presence, arthrography or diagnostic arthroscopy need not be performed.
