Remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting oedema (RS3PE) case presentation and comparison with other polyarthritides affecting older people

Abstract

Remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting oedema (RS3PE) syndrome mainly affects elderly men and responds well to steroids. Since this syndrome can resemble other diseases, its diagnosis is a significant challenge. Through the following paper, we hope to improve the diagnosis of RS3PE by presenting a table comparing RS3PE to two other common polyarthritic conditions affecting the elderly.

Keywords: RS3PE; older people; paraneoplastic syndrome; polyarthritides.
