Abstract

Rice bodies with synovial origin look like cartilagie and they are usually composed of fibrin. Tuberculosis, rheumatoid arthritis or other seronegative arthropathies may be the etiology. In this report, a 48-year-old women patient was presented with mild pain and swelling soft tissue masses in both shoulder measuring 7x7 cm. There was no history of trauma. Laboratory tests were normal. Exhaustive investigations for rheumatic disease were negative. Soft tissue masses was regarded as subacromial origin. Both masses were surgically removed and were found to include numerous rice bodies. The patient regained a full and painless range of motion in about 15 days. In the 2-year follow-up, she had neither complaints nor signs of rheumatological disease.

Bilateral subakromial bursada pirinç tanesi cisimcikleri

Abstract

Pirinç tanesi cisimcikleri, kıkırdak görünümlü, genellikle fibrin yapısında sinoviya kökenli cisimciklerdir. Etiyolojisinde tuberküloz, romatoid artrit, hipokomplementemik artrit ve diğer seronegatif artropatilerin rol oynadığı düşünülmektedir. Bu yazıda, her iki omuzunda yaklaşık 7x7 cm şişliği ve hafif ağrısı olan 48 yaşındaki kadın hasta değerlendirildi. Travma öyküsü yoktu. Laboratuvar testleri normaldi. Romatizmal hastalıklarla ilgili kapsamlı incelemeleri negatif bulundu. Kitlelerin subakromial kökenli oldukları öngörüldü. Her iki kitle cerrahi olarak çıkarıldı ve çok sayıda pirinç tanesi cisimciği içerdiği görüldü. On beş gün içerisinde tam ve ağrısız omuz hareketleri elde edildi. 2 yıllık takip sonunda hastanın herhangi bir yakınması olmadı ve romatolojik bir hastalığa da rastlanmadı.
