title: Imaging features of dissecting neuropathic joints.
abstract: The imaging appearances of three patients with variable clinical presentations of dissecting neuropathic joints are described. Plain radiographs demonstrated bony debris within the soft tissues adjacent to and distant from neuropathic joints. Computed tomography combined with arthrography confirmed that the soft tissue bony debris communicated with the joints.
