MeSH Heading: Spondylarthropathies
Tree Number(s): C05.116.900.853.625.800; C05.550.114.865.800
Unique ID: D025242
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D025242
Annotation: coordinate with specific vertebra
Scope Note: Heterogeneous group of arthritic diseases sharing clinical and radiologic features. They are associated with the HLA-B27 ANTIGEN and some with a triggering infection. Most involve the axial joints in the SPINE, particularly the SACROILIAC JOINT, but can also involve asymmetric peripheral joints. Subsets include ANKYLOSING SPONDYLITIS; REACTIVE ARTHRITIS; PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS; and others.
Entry Term(s): Bechterew Syndrome; Marie-Strumpell Spondylitis; Spondylarthropathy; Spondyloarthropathy
