In this study we aim to invastigate the effects of intraarticular tramadol on synovia. Eighteen healtyh rabbits 0.5-1 years old and weighted between 1.8-2.5 kg were included in the study. All rabbits were divided into five groups as follow; Group 1 (n=4), group 2 (n=4), Group 3 (n=4), Group 4 (n=4), and control group (n=2). Tramadol (12.5 mg/0.5 mL), or saline (0.5 mL) were given, intraarticularly in to the back knees of the rabbits in the study groups and control group respectively. Rabbits in group 1 and control groups were sacrified at first day, group 2 at 7th day, group 3 at 15th day, and group 4 at 21 th day by letal dose of sevoflurane. Examination of sinovia of the all rabbits were normal and there was no differences between groups. In conclusion; Tramadol has no histopathological effect on rabbits sinovia and may be safely administered intraarticularly in human.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessHistopathological ResearchRabbit'S SynoviaTramadolArticle312N/AN/A6265
