Arthritides Flashcards
If there are symmetric erosions and soft tissue swelling affecting 1 joint, what arthritis is this?
Infection
If there are proximal,symmetric erosions and soft tissue swelling in more than one joint, with no bony proliferation. What type of arthritis is this?
RA
If there are distal, symmetric erosions and soft tissue swelling, with bony proliferations. What form of arthritis is this most likely?
AS
If the narrowing is asymmetric with osteophytes and sclerosis. What form of arthritis is?
