ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

To identify the presence and distribution of histopathological features of synovial inflammation and tissue damage, and to test their associations with ultrasound (US) imaging measures of synovitis and patient-reported measures of pain in knee osteoarthritis (OA).

DESIGN:

In the cross-sectional study of 122 patients undergoing surgery for painful late-stage (Kellgren-Lawrence Grade 3 or 4) knee OA, we compared US measures of synovitis (n = 118) and pain (Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score) to histopathological measures of inflammation vs. synovial tissue damage in synovial tissue biopsies. Associations of histopathological features with US measures of inflammation or pain were assessed using linear or logistic regression while controlling for covariates.

RESULTS:

Histopathological features of inflammation were associated with higher odds of moderate/severe US synovitis (odds ratio [OR] = 1.34 [95%CI 1.04, 1.74), whereas features of synovial tissue damage were associated with lower odds of moderate/severe US synovitis (OR = 0.77 [95%CI 0.57, 1.03]). Worse histopathological scores for synovial tissue damage were associated with more pain (-1.47 [95%CI -2.88, -0.05]), even while adjusting for synovial inflammation (-1.61 [95%CI -3.12, -0.10]).

CONCLUSIONS:

Synovial tissue damage is associated with pain in late-stage knee OA, independent from inflammation and radiographic damage. These novel findings suggest that preventing synovial tissue damage may be an important goal of disease-modifying OA therapy.
