Marginal osteophytosis refers to the formation of osteophytes, or bone spurs, at the margins of joints, often as a result of osteoarthritis or other degenerative joint conditions. These bony projections develop in response to joint stress and can lead to pain, reduced mobility, and joint stiffness. While they are typically a sign of joint degeneration, osteophytes can sometimes contribute to joint stability. Diagnosis usually involves imaging techniques like X-rays or MRI.

What is osteophytosis?

A bony outgrowth usually found around the joint area. Osteophytes are bone spurs that may arise from bone margins either in response to repetitive traction or osteoarthrosis affecting a joint margin.

What is meant by marginal non marginal complete incomplete syndesmophytes?

In regards to marginal vs. non-marginal syndesmophytes. Marginal syndesmophytes (intervertebral bony bony bridges) are more commonly seen in ankylosing spondylitis. Where as non-marginal syndesmophytes are more commonly in reactive arthritis and DISH. Marginal syndesmophytes are delicate + symmetric; while non-marginal syndesmophytes are bulky + discontinuous.
