We studied the clinical behavior of with rheumatoid arthritis of 2000 patientes between 1966 and 1995 and 92 patients in 1996. We made an effort to focus on extra-articular signs and the cause of death. We found clinical signs in most systems particularly in the group of 2000 patients, and this observation is ascribed to treatment. Rheumatoid arthritis patients were the most frequent in our service during 1996.
