Spanish term

Tendinopatia peritrocanterica calcificante

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Medical report
Hi all,

I came across this in a medical report and I'm not sure of the best way to phrase it. I thought maybe "calcifying peritrochanteric tendinopathy" but was wondering if there's a less clunky way of phrasing it:

"Ha sido tratada por trochanteritis bilateral con infiltraciones y fisioterapia al presentar una tendinopatia peritrocanterica calcificante."

The report was issued in Spain and the target audience is UK.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you!

Nisah

No matter what, I believe peritrochanteric calcific tendinopathy is a correct literal rendering of the otherwise uncommon original expression. And yet, other than "transliterating" with an expression that is not found anywhere on English literature, I suggest translating with a common and understandable English expression that conveys the original idea. Just another option.

Hi liz ,
I believe your links might be a bit misleading.

The first one refers to pertrochanteric and intertrochanteric fractures, peritrochanteric meaning extracapsular hip fractures involving the trochanter -which is not really related with the case at hand.
Peritrochanteric hip fractures are defined as extracapsular hip fractures, always involving the trochanter and frequently with extension into the subtrochanteric region.
https://musculoskeletalkey.com/open-reduction-and-internal-f...

The second one is a reference to a clinical syndrome known as peritrochanteric pain syndrome, which is also unrelated to the case presented by the OP.
Peritrochanteric pain syndrome includes a cluster of disorders that cause severe pain on the side of the hip and thigh region.

Personally, I would still use "peritrochanteric" as they are specifically referring to this part of the anatomy

Well, that's new to me.
Chema Nieto Castañón Jun 17, 2019:
No trouble, liz. That is precisely what I am saying; both in Spanish and English (i.e. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_fracture ) reference to "hip" usually conveys not just any part of the hip but specifically the hip joint -(peri)trochanteric area. A hip fracture (Spanish fractura de cadera), when no otherwise specified conveys the idea of an upper femur [(peri)trochanteric] fracture.

See, for instance;
The hip is the joint between the upper end of the thighbone (femur) and its socket in the pelvis. When a hip fractures (breaks), the injury is always in the femur.
https://www.health.harvard.edu/a_to_z/hip-fracture-a-to-z

A hip fracture is a break in the upper quarter of the femur (thigh) bone. The extent of the break depends on the forces that are involved.

liz askew Jun 17, 2019:
Trouble is that the hip is made up of several bones and this is specific to around the trochanter.
Chema Nieto Castañón Jun 16, 2019:
Although both, calcific tendinopathy and peritrochanteric are correct terms, I believe calcific peritrochanteric tendinopathy sounds as a translation. The truth and the fact is that there is not even one such example to be found on English literature. Calcific tendinopathy of the hip (sometimes referred to as calcific tendinitis/tendonitis of the hip) on the contrary is a rather normal expression in English that conveys the original sense of "peritrocantérico" as related to a periarticular tendinopathy of the hip joint.

The trochanter is an anatomical portion of the femur near its joint with the hip bone. In humans and most mammals the trochanters serve as important muscle attachment sites. Humans are known to have three trochanters, though the anatomic "normal" includes only the greater and lesser trochanters.

Yes, I would definitely use peritrochanteric, otherwise the findings or diagnosis will not be accurate if you use "hip".

calcific tendinopathy of the hip

Peritrocantérea [peritrocantérica] alude en este caso a una tendinopatía que interesa no solo la articulación de la cadera sino toda la zona que la envuelve. En inglés diría que la expresión más común, aunque discretamente inespecifica, es la de calcific tendinopathy of the hip.

Pej.

Calcium apatite deposition disease (CADD) is a common entity characterized by deposition of calcium apatite crystals within and around connective tissues, usually in a periarticular location.

neutral liz askew : This is specifically about trochanter, not the hip overall

Nope; it is "peritrocantérica", which conveys the idea of "around the hip joint". Usually, although a bit unspecific, as stated in answer, hip is used in this context to refer to the articulation itself as well as to the structures around it.
