Abstract

Rheumatic manifestations of genetic hemochromatosis are frequent. These manifestations are characterized by articular damage and osteoporosis. Clinicians must be aware of these presentations because they are sometimes the initial manifestation of hemochromatosis. Moreover, rheumatic pain causes substantial discomfort for patients and diminishes their quality of life.
