Radiosynovectomy is effective in thumb basal joint arthritis

Annals of Nuclear Medicine, 2021
Radiosynovectomy (RSO) describes the internal low-dose radiotherapy of the synovia via intra-articular administration of small radioactive particles. Since the introduction of biologics, the main aetiology of arthritic joints for RSO changed to mostly osteoarthritis with concordant change in typically affected joints.

Radiosynovectomy

Blood Coagulation & Fibrinolysis, 2013
Haemophilic arthropathy occurs due to recurrent bleeding into joints leading to swelling, inflammation, destruction of cartilage and bone, and development of arthritis. Although prophylactic replacement therapy assists in preventing arthropathy, it is not always adequate or affordable. Radiosynovectomy is a minimally invasive intervention for treatment

Post-radiosynovectomy imaging utilizing Erbium-169 citrate

Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 2019
Currently, there is no imaging procedure for radionuclide therapy utilizing Erbium-169 (Er-169). We have recently published the first post-radiosynovectomy imaging of Er-169 citrate in a case report (Farahati et al., 2017). In this study, we performed in-vitro and in-vivo studies to evaluate the feasibility to assess the distribution of Er-169 citrate ...

Radiosynovectomy in Children with Congenital Haemostatic Defects

Blood, 2008
Abstract Aims: To evaluate the clinical benefits of radiosynovectomy (RS) in children with congenital coagulative disorders, reduce bleeds and improve progression free survival (PFS). Methods: 35 patients aged 7 to 17 yrs, (mean age 12.6 yrs) were included in the study. 29 had haemophilia A, (4 with inhibitor factor VIII),

Preparation of 188Re-labeled hydroxyapatite for radiosynovectomy

Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 2002
Hydroxyapatite (HA), a natural constituent of bone, was synthesized. HA particles were radiolabeled with 188Re. Radiolabeling efficiency was 95%. In vitro studies showed 5% loss of activity from particles in normal saline over a period of 2 days, whereas a dissociation rate of 9% was observed in human serum albumin.

Radiosynovectomy's clinical applications and cost effectiveness: A review

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 1997
It is apparent that from the work of the authors and many others, including the work of Rivard, Sledge, Zuckerman, among others, that radiosynovectomy has an important role to play in providing effective treatment of affected joints associated with rheumatoid arthritis and other forms of arthritis as well as the hemophiliac joint.

Radiosynovectomy in rheumatology, orthopedics, and hemophilia.

Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine, 2005
Radiosynovectomy (RSV) is a local intraarticular injection of radionuclides in colloidal form for radiotherapy. First used by Fellinger et al. in 1952, the technique has now been applied for more than 50 y for treatment of resistant synovitis of individual joints after failure of long-term systemic pharmacotherapy and intraarticular steroid injections.

Phosphate-32 Colloid Radiosynovectomy in Hemophilia

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2001
Radiosynovectomy offers a potentially effective, minimally invasive option for patients with chronic hemarthrosis and synovitis. The long-term outcome of patients with hemophilia who were treated with phosphate-32 chromic phosphate radiosynovectomy was evaluated. One hundred twenty-five procedures in 81 patients were done.

[Radiosynovectomy with dysprosium-165 iron hydroxide].

Acta medica Austriaca, 1993
Treatment of chronic rheumatoid synovitis (RS) is directed to control the inflammatory process causing pain and disability. Radiation synovectomy is suggested to be an alternative to surgical treatment, but its clinical use has been restricted because of significant leakage (> 10%) associated with the use of the standard radionuclide 90-Yttrium (used ...

Radiosynovectomy: Introduction and Overview of the Literature

2015
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and local degenerative changes such as osteoarthritis (OA) are the most common reasons for synovitis that lead to chronic pain, swelling, destruction and dysfunction of the joints. Systemic treatment including non-steroidal anti-infl ammatory drugs (NSAIDs) as well as diseasemodifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), like ...
