Abstract:
:Twenty-nine patients who had received chronic hemodialysis for more than 5 years provided the material for the present study. In 12 of them (41%) there were radiological findings of dialysis related amyloidosis, mainly destructive spondyloarthropathy of the cervical spine (n = 11) and geodes of the shoulder (n = 5). When compared with negative patients, these patients were significantly older (p less than 0.001 and had been dialyzed for longer periods of time (p less than 0.01). Moreover, in such patients there was an higher incidence of carpal tunnel syndrome (p less than 0.025) and shoulder pain (p less than 0.001). Our results confirm that osteoarticular amyloidosis is a frequent long-term complication of chronic hemodialysis and underline the correlation between clinical and radiological findings.
