Morphological Changes in the Adrenal Gland in Experimental Rheumatoid Arthritis
Keywords:

In recent years, the widespread prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis among
diseases of the connective tissue system and the development of disability in patients indicate the
relevance of this disease. The development of disability in patients means that this disease is not
only a medical, but also a social problem. In some cases, damage to internal organs may also occur,
and many complications may develop. Approximately half of patients develop disability 3-5 years
after the onset of the disease. Therefore, early diagnosis of this disease is very important. The
article presents morphological changes in adrenal tissue during modeling of adjuvant arthritis in
30 white laboratory outbred rats. Under experimental conditions, dystrophic and destructive
changes in the cellular elements of adrenal tissue were revealed.
