| Abstract: | Rice body formation is generally a rare disorder related to rheumatoid arthritis. It can also be observed in cases of systemic
lupus erythematosus, seronegative arthritis, infectious arthritis (tuberculosis, atypical mycobacterial infection), nonspecific
arthritis, and osteoarthritis. It is generally located within joints or bursae. Multiple rice bodies of tendon sheaths are
rarely encountered. Rice body formation may also be encountered without underlying systemic disorders. We present a case of
multiple rice body formation that accompanied chronic nonspecific tenosynovitis of the flexor tendons of the wrist. |
