It involves intra-articular injection of radioactive colloids which induce necrosis and fibrosis of hypertrophic synovial membrane. The most common indication for radiosynovectomy is rheumatoid arthritis, although patients with seronegative spondyloarthropathies, unclassified arthritis, haemophili...
متن کاملOsteoporosis/osteopenia and hemophilic arthropathy in severe hemophilic patients.
BACKGROUND Types A and B hemophilia are coagulation disorders associated with many complications. Osteoporosis is a skeletal condition characterized by the decreased density of normally mineralized bone.
