ABSTRACT
Lymphoedema of the upper limbs is a rare extraarticular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Herein we report a patient with RA who presented two episodes of lymphoedema in the hands and forearms coinciding with flares of polyarthritis. Lymphoscintigraphy showed lymphatic-ectasia. The oedema improved with slow-acting drug treatment.
