Abstract
Idiopathic calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (pseudogout) has a variable presentation. Many joints are usually affected; single joint disease is uncommon. We present a case report of primary monoarticular pseudogout affecting the hip. The diagnosis was made on the appearance and analysis of specimens obtained at arthroscopy. Monoarticular pseudogout is rare, but should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any presentation of joint pain.
