[Morphologic studies on rats with adjuvant disease of long duration].
Morphological studies were performed on Wistar-AF/Han-EMD-SPF-rats with adjuvant disease of 3 tp 14 months duration. Synovitis was observed in the noninjected paw up to the 6th month. While in the central bones resorption and new bone formation had ceased about the 7th month, periostal bone resorption proceeded until the 14the month. Morphological end results of the longlasting disease were pannus formation and fibrous ankylosis of the joints and severe sclerosis of the affected bones. Amyloid deposits were never observed.
