NCT03417167
Brief Summary:
Synovial biopsies are now routinely performed both in research and in clinical practice. The developments of ultrasound (US) and of US-guided needle biopsies devices have facilitated their use and tolerance by the patients. However, their interest in clinical practice in the context of an undifferentiated arthritis remains debated.
Detailed Description:
In this study, the investigators will collect all the synovial biopsies performed in clinical practice in 18 Rheumatology Unit throughout France. All the participants received a standardized training on US-guided synovial biopsies. For each biopsy, the indications, clinical presentation, procedure (length, tolerance), biopsy results (Pathology, bacteriology, etc ...) will be collected in a Clinical Research Form. The investigator will determine the number of cases where the synovial biopsy allows drawing a definite diagnosis.
