Spondylarthropathies (C0949691)

Definition (MSH) 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.
Definition (CHV) degeneration of the spinal bone where spinal columns are fused and immobilized
Definition (CSP) group of related inflammatory, arthritic diseases of the joints in the spine sharing clinical and radiologic features and are associated with the MHC class I molecule HLA-B27 antigen.
