PY - 2011 T2 - Rudolph's Pediatrics, 22e AB - The word spondyloarthropathy (referring to arthritis of the spine and sacroiliac joints) evolved in the adult population to distinguish a group of chronic arthritides that differed from rheumatoid arthritis. These conditions were distinct in that they involved axial joints, were associated with the HLA-B27 haplotype, had a frequent family history of these diseases, and were rheumatoid factor negative. Traditionally the specifically named spondyloarthropathies included ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, the arthropathy of inflammatory bowel disease, and Reiter disease.
