摘要：
We evaluated the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) findings of the sternoclavicular joint in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and compare them with general population. Chest MDCT scans of RA patients were reviewed. The control group was formed from age and sex-matched individuals. The most common CT findings were cortical irregularity, joint space narrowing, and osteophytes in study group. There were no statistically significant differences in the MDCT findings between the two groups except that osteophytes were observed more often in the control group. It is difficult to distinguish between the involvement of RA and age-related degenerative changes at the stemoclavicular joint. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
