[Clinical x-ray and scintigraphic evaluation of the state of the sacroiliac joints in patients with chronic monarthritis].
The paper is concerned with some comparative data on the frequency of the detection of sacroileitis using clinicoroentgenological and scintigraphic studies in 57 patients with chronic monarthritis of the knee joint of different genesis. On clinical examination 14 patients (24.7%) only had indirect signs of the affected sacroiliac joints, in 30 patients (52.6%) sacroileitis was diagnosed by x-ray. Scintigraphy with 99mTc-pyrophosphate proved to be most effective for the detection of early signs of sacroileitis because lesions in the sacroiliac joints were found in 35 patients (61.4%).
