RESUMO

Sixteen patients with painful tender swelling in the region of the sternocostal joint (SCJ) are reported and analysed against the background of a review of 106 previously reported patients with Tietze's syndrome. Seven patients fulfilled all the diagnostic criteria for Tietze's syndrome. The radiographic findings and/or the history of these patients suggested that local strain generated by respiration is a pathogenetic factor. Nine patients had a systemic arthritic disorder, skin disease, or psoriasis in their family. They differed from the 7 patients with local involvement and from those reviewed, by the rather frequent bilateral involvement, a frequent affection of the first SCJ and the manubriosternal joint, and a female predominance. Their SCJ swellings may be viewed as part of a seronegative arthritis.

RESUMO

Tietze's syndrome consists of pain, tenderness, and swelling of the costosternal or sternoclavicular joints. The etiology is unknown, although microtrauma or rare infections have been though to be responsible for the lesion. Conventional therapy consists of anti-inflammatory drugs, sometimes combined with chemotherapeutic agents and antibiotics. Surgery is usually deemed necessary for cases that do not respond to conventional therapy. Experience with the use of human calcitonin in five patients suffering from severe Tietze's syndrome who did not respond to conventional therapy is reported. Symptoms improved within seven days, and all symptoms and signs had disappeared after one month of treatment. The beneficial effects of calcitonin are believed to result from the hormone's well-known analgesic and immunomodulating effects.
