Area of Science:

  • Rheumatology
  • Nuclear Medicine

Background:

  • Intraarticular therapy is a standard treatment for chronic inflammatory joint diseases.
  • Radiosynoviorthesis is a common procedure alongside glucocorticoid injections.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize the indications for intraarticular radiosynoviorthesis.
  • To highlight the current understanding of its use in various arthropathies.

Main Methods:

  • Review of established indications for radiosynoviorthesis.
  • Identification of conditions where its value is established or under investigation.

Main Results:

  • Radiosynoviorthesis is indicated for chronic synovitis with recurrent joint effusions in rheumatoid arthritis, seronegative spondyloarthritis, and villonodular synovitis.

  • It is also used for bleeding prophylaxis in haemophilic arthropathy.

    • Conclusions:

    • Radiosynoviorthesis is a valuable intraarticular treatment for specific chronic inflammatory and bleeding arthropathies.
    • Further research is needed to clarify its role in activated osteoarthritis.
