Q

What is “pannus” and why does it form in Rheumatoid arthritis?

A

Pannus is an abnormal layer of fibrovascular tissue or granulation tissue. Inflammation and exuberant proliferation of the synovium leads to the formation of pannus and destruction of cartilage, bone, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels.
