Uncovertebral joint arthropathy, also known as uncovertebral osteoarthritis, is a degenerative condition that affects the uncovertebral joints in the cervical spine. These joints are located between the bodies of the cervical vertebrae and play a role in stabilizing the spine and allowing for smooth movement. Arthropathy refers to any disease or abnormality of a joint, and in this case, it involves the degeneration of the uncovertebral joints, leading to symptoms such as neck pain, stiffness, and possibly nerve compression. Treatment may include physical therapy, medications, and in severe cases, surgery.
Uncovertebral arthropathy refers to degenerative changes of the uncovertebral joint. This joint is located on both sides of the disc space adjacent to the cervical spine.

An arthropathy is any of a group of several diseases of a joint.
Hip arthroplasty is a hip replacement. Arthropathy is any joint disease.
Arthropathy
Charcot's arthropathy is a condition in which the shoulder joint is destroyed following loss of its nerve supply.

Moderate facet arthropathy refers to degenerative changes in the facet joints of the spine. Uncovertebral joint spurring is the formation of bony growths in the joints located in the front part of the vertebrae. Bilateral foraminal narrowing indicates a reduction in the space through which nerves exit the spinal canal on both sides. Overall, these findings suggest a condition where there is compression and potential irritation of the nerve roots as they exit the spinal canal.
The uncovertebral joint is also known as the Luschka's joint. These are bone spurs that occur when the third through seventh cervical vertebrae meet.
Traumatic arthropathy is a condition characterized by joint damage resulting from an injury, such as a fracture, dislocation, or repetitive trauma. This injury can lead to inflammation, pain, and deterioration of the cartilage and surrounding tissues in the joint. Over time, traumatic arthropathy may result in chronic pain and reduced joint function, similar to osteoarthritis. Treatment typically focuses on managing symptoms and may include physical therapy, medication, or surgical interventions.
Moderate facet arthropathy is Arthritis in the facet joints. Most people that have this will complain of pain in their lower back. Facet joints are joint structures that connect the vertebrae to each other.
Uncovertebral arthrosis, also known as uncovertebral joint osteoarthritis, is a degenerative condition that affects the uncovertebral joints in the spine. These joints are located between adjacent vertebrae in the cervical spine, and over time, they can develop osteoarthritis, which may lead to symptoms like neck pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Treatment typically involves managing symptoms with pain medication, physical therapy, and in more severe cases, surgery may be considered.
