Abstract: | We report a rare case of spontaneous rupture of the extensor tendons at the wrist which was shown histologically to be related to calcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition disease. The causes of tendon rupture were chronic synovitis with crystal deposition and a dorsal prominence of the ulnar head. |
