To review the clinical features of brachial synovial cyst.
A case of bilateral brachial synovial cysts is described in a child suffering from systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis during a relapse. Magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasonography were conducted to further evaluate the nature of the cysts. The case is compared with known cases in a literature review.
Review of the literature showed that brachial synovial cysts occur most commonly in systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. It is considered that uncontrolled systemic inflammation and recurrent disease activity might be the cause of synovial cysts.
Brachial synovial cyst is a rare manifestation of juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Uncontrolled systemic inflammation inducing chronic damage to joint structure may be the primary cause of synovial cyst formation.
回顾肱二头肌滑膜囊肿的临床特征。
描述了一例患有全身型幼年特发性关节炎的儿童在疾病复发期间双侧肱二头肌滑膜囊肿的病例。磁共振成像和超声检查用于进一步评估囊肿的性质。并通过文献复习与已知病例进行比较。
文献复习显示,肱二头肌滑膜囊肿最常见于全身型幼年特发性关节炎。认为未得到控制的全身炎症和反复的疾病活动可能是滑膜囊肿的原因。
肱二头肌滑膜囊肿是幼年特发性关节炎的一种罕见表现。未得到控制的全身性炎症引起关节结构的慢性损伤可能是滑膜囊肿形成的主要原因。
