Abstract

In a retrospective study, the authors report 14 cases of osteoarticular manifestations, among 29 patients affected with a sickle cell disease observed at adult age. They insist on their frequency and their interest for diagnosis and prognostic. Effectively, the diagnosis has been revealed on occasion of these manifestations in 9 cases/14. The articular signs are noted in 35%, and the osseous signs in 25% of cases.
