Moderate chondral thinning refers to the wearing down or reduction in thickness of the cartilage (chondral tissue) covering the ends of bones in a joint. This can occur due to factors like aging, overuse, or trauma, and may lead to pain, stiffness, and reduced joint function. In moderate cases, there may be some damage to the cartilage but not yet severe enough to require surgical intervention.
The Latin term for ribs is costae.
Chondral loss involving the posterior central aspect of the tibial plafond indicates damage to the cartilage at the back and center of the shinbone where it connects to the ankle joint. This can lead to pain, swelling, and limited range of motion in the ankle joint. Treatment may involve rest, physical therapy, and possibly surgery in severe cases.
