Although the terms "arthropathy" and [[arthritis]] have very similar meanings, the former is traditionally used to describe the following conditions: * ''Reactive arthropathy'' (M02-M03) is caused by an [[infection]], but not a direct infection of the [[synovial space]]. (See also [[Reactive arthritis]]) * ''Enteropathic arthropathy'' (M07) is caused by [[colitis]] and related conditions. * ''Crystal arthropathy'' (also known as ''crystal arthritis'') (M10-M11) involves the deposition of crystals in the joint. ** In [[gout]], the crystal is [[uric acid]]. ** In [[pseudogout]]/[[chondrocalcinosis]]/[[calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease]], the crystal is [[calcium pyrophosphate]]. * ''Diabetic arthropathy'' (M14.2, E10-E14) is caused by [[diabetes]]. * ''Neuropathic arthropathy'' (M14.6) is associated with a loss of [[sensation]].
