abstract: Intraarticular therapy using radionuclides seems to be the best conservative local treatment of chronic synovitis as a generally accepted alternative to surgical synovectomy. If the indication is carefully considered and the technique properly applied, the success rate of treatment is as high as it is with surgery, whereas the risk involved is comparatively low.
