Diagnosis of Arthrosis by Morphologic Picture of Sy-novial Fluid

Authors have studied the peculiarities of morphologic picture and distribution of chemical elements in dehydrated synovial fluid of normal individuals and patients with arthrosis. It has been determined that in the morphologic picture of synovial fluid the basic arthrosis marker is presented by spindle structures within the intermediate facies zone. It has been shown that in dehydrated synovial fluid P content was 4 times and Ca content - 7 times higher in patients with arthrosis as compared with healthy individuals. That was an evidence of the articular osteo-cartilagenous tissue destruction and accumulation of degradation products which were neutralized by calcites and phosphates.
