STRESZCZENIE
Radionuclide synovectomy (RSV) is a form of minimally invasive treatment of persistent joint inflammation. The procedure has a high safety profile and the occurrence of serious adverse events, such as full-thickness skin radiation necrosis, is rare. Less severe radiation events, while more common, are usually benign and self-limiting.
We present two cases of low-grade beta burns that developed after RSV, despite proper injection technique. The potential long-term risk of such exposure is also discussed, with reference to historical radiation incidents. While low-grade beta burns after RSV usually pose little danger to the patient, any clinician involved in radionuclide treatment of arthritis should be aware of their existence and management
