PReS-FINAL-2091: Extra-articular calcification after intra-articular corticosteroid injection

چکیده
Results Two adolescent girls with polyarticular JIA reported pain and swelling around the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and interphalangeal (IP) joints without symptoms of arthritis in other joints. Both girls were treated with methotrexate and anti-TNF-alpha agents for years. Several flares of arthritis had been seen in both small and large joints. No extra-articular symptoms were reported. Both patients had been treated by several intra-articular corticosteroids injections with triamcinolone hexacetonide including the MCP and IP joints. No adverse effects had been noticed. X-ray of the hands showed periarticular or capsular calcification of some MCP and IP joints in both patients. MRI showed no signs of arthritis and no damage on intra-articular structures.
