Tarzit

Tarsitis is an inflammation of the joints, a syndrome of painful and swollen small joints and (or) the entire joint of two or three small joints of the hands. The syndromic picture of the syndrome is so similar to RA disease that if it is excluded, there is still a possibility that the symptoms are caused by a tumor process, syphilis, systemic scleroderma, and so on. In this situation, diagnosis is possible only based on the results of laboratory and instrumental studies. Treatment for tartitis is conservative therapy.
