Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease that is liable to flare up throughout a patient's lifetime, sometimes destroying joints or causing them to become badly deformed.
The disease is a major public health problem because it can seriously disable sufferers and may force them to give up their employment.
Written by a French specialist, this updated edition sets out to provide an overview of current knowledge of the disease and recommended forms of treatment. These have recently been extended by biotherapy, which represents a major, and indeed revolutionary, contribution to the options available.
