Abstract

The authors describe the appearance of rheumatoid nodules during cyclosporin A (CsA) therapy for RA. Their course was evaluated by sonography that revealed an increase in number and size of rheumatoid nodules. The relationship between CsA treatment and the onset of nodulosis is not clear and further studies are needed to assess the role of CsA treatment in the extra-articular manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis such as rheumatoid nodules.
