Abstract

The occurrence of stress fractures in patients with long-standing rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is widely known. Osteoporosis, corticosteroid therapy, joint stiffness, contracture, angular deformity of the joint and failed joint reconstruction--all together or separately--predispose to bone loss and stress fractures. In the present report we describe the history of a girl with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) having multiple stress fractures. The relationship between corticosteroid therapy and immobilisation in the treatment of fractures is discussed.
