Spondyloarthritis is a group of chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases that primarily affect the spine and large joints. In orthopaedics, spondyloarthritis encompasses conditions such as ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, reactive arthritis, and others. These disorders share common characteristics, including inflammation of the axial skeleton, entheses (sites where tendons or ligaments attach to bones), and peripheral joints. Orthopedic assessments for spondyloarthritis involve evaluating symptoms such as back pain, morning stiffness, and joint inflammation. Imaging studies, such as X-rays and MRI, are crucial for diagnosing and monitoring disease progression. Treatment in orthopaedics often includes a combination of medications to control inflammation, physical therapy for joint flexibility, and lifestyle modifications. Early detection and intervention are vital to prevent irreversible joint damage and deformities, particularly in the spine.
