مستخلص: Five patients who presented with arthritis as the sole manifestation of hereditary hemochromatosis and 51 family members were studied. Studies included clinical evaluation for the presence of arthritis and hemochromatosis, roentgenography of hands, knees, and pelvis, serum iron and serum ferritin measurements, complete HLA typing for 50 of the A and B loci, and, when indicated, liver biopsy. Arthritis occurred in 45 percent of persons with hemochromatosis. Although typical involvement of second and third metacarpophalangeal joints was observed in all five patients and some family members, two with typical arthritis did not have characteristic radiographic changes, two had constitutional symptoms without arthropathy, and one had unilateral hand changes. A specific HLA haplotype (A2/B17 in Family 1 and A29/B15 in Family 2) correlated with hereditary hemochromatosis but not with the arthropathy. Phlebotomy alleviated the early constitutional symptoms but did not help advanced arthritis. Anti-inflammatory drugs, intraarticular injections of glucocorticoids, and resection osteotomies of metacarpal heads were other treatment modalities.
