In chondrocalcinosis articularis, calcified deposits develop in hyaline cartilage and fibrocartilage and in the joint capsules. The large joints are affected most often, especially the knees. The symphysis pubis is the second most common site of involvement. The roentgenograms demonstrate a characteristic picture. The menisci may show calcification. Very often there is a thin line of calcification in the articular cartilage which runs parallel with and slightly separated from the subchondral bony cortex. Calcification is found also in the articular cartilage and the fibrocartilage of other large joints, as well as within or adjacent to the joint capsule.(From TUROR, 1984, p. 1287. ] 2, record 12, English, - thin%20line%20of%20calcification

Ischemic necrosis of the femoral capital epiphysis is characterized initially by dense areas appearing in the femoral head. These areas may take the form of a bandlike linear opacity along the articular surface, or may follow the epiphyseal line. Widening of the epiphyseal cartilage plate may then occur. Spherical segmental opacities then appear, giving the so-called "snow-cap" appearance. [From GBONE, 1980, p. 184. ] 3, record 14, English, - snowcap%20appearance
