Hipersensibilidade Retardada a Metais De Prótese Total Do Joelho – Uma Realidade a Ter Em Conta

Abstract: As reacções de hipersensibilidade retardada (HSR) a metais em doentes com próteses ortopédicas podem causar lesões cutâneas e/ou inflamação dos tecidos peri-protésicos com dor e/ou compromisso funcional da prótese. Muitos destes sinais são comuns à infecção peri-protética o que coloca importantes dificuldades no diagnóstico diferencial deste problema crescente. Uma doente do sexo feminino, 7 meses após artroplastia total do joelho (ATJ) desenvolveu dor e limitação funcional com derrame peri-articular e placa i… Show more

“…The types of metals that can induce hypersensitivity reactions include chromium, cobalt, nickel, platinum, mercury, titanium, silver, and gold (Zhang et al, 2016). They are commonly found in orthopedic devices such as surgical implants and joint prostheses (Innes & Atwater, 2020; Ramos et al, 2015), dental implants, fillings, and crowns (Basko-Plluska et al, 2011), and coronary devices such as stents (Meireles et al, 2007; Svedman et al, 2009). Benson et al (1975) reported high rates of hypersensitivity to metals in orthopedic patients while Innes and Atwater (2020) highlighted the prevalence of metal hypersensitivity in dental patients.…”
