Pelvic insufficiency fractures in rheumatoid arthritis

W C Peh et al. Br J Rheumatol. 1993 Apr.

Abstract

The occurrence of pelvic insufficiency fractures in patients with rheumatoid arthritis has not previously been well emphasized. These fractures are difficult to detect clinically and appropriate radiological investigation is necessary for diagnosis. We describe five patients with a spectrum of radiological features and discuss the approach to diagnosis and treatment of these lesions.
