Rapid destructive osteo-arthritis of the hip.
A case of an unusual destructive hip osteo-arthropathy with a plain-film record of rapid joint destruction is reported. In the absence of any laboratory or pathological support for other pathology this is thought to be an uncommon example of erosive or inflammatory osteo-arthritis in a large joint.
