Tephrosia toxicaria Pers. reduces temporomandibular joint inflammatory hypernociception: the involvement of the HO-1 pathway.

Background: We investigated both the efficacy and the sub-chronic toxicity of Tephrosia toxicaria Pers. in the zymosan-induced temporomandibular joint (TMJ) inflammatory hypernociception in rats evaluating the possible role of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1).

Methods: Rats were pretreated with T.

Pigmented villonodular synovitis of thoracic facet joint presenting as rapidly progressive paraplegia.

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a proliferative disorder of the synovial membrane of uncertain etiology. It commonly affects synovial joints of the appendicular skeleton and rarely affects the spine. We present the case of a young man presenting with a rapidly progressive myelopathy due to spinal cord compression by PVNS arising from a thoracic facet joint, which finally resulted in paraplegia.
