Abstract
In a review of 39 patients with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular arthropathy was noted in 15% and 10% of the patients, respectively. Diffuse clavicular swelling preceded the onset of PMR in 1 patient. Carpal tunnel syndrome was seen in 4 patients (10%).This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
