Functional Limitations Due To The Foot Involvement In Spondyloarthritis

Seronegative spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of rheumatic diseases Foot involvement of the SpA is common and enthesitis, erosive changes or ankylosis are the frequent lesions. The functional status of the SpA patients are usually evaluated globally.The aim of this study is to assess specifically the foot -related functional limitations of the SpA patients.

About this study

SpA patients who had foot pain at least for 4 weeks and those having bilateral anteroposterior and lateral feet x-rays will be included into the study. Foot x-rays will be evaluated by a radiologist by using the spondyloarthropathy tarsal radiographic index (SpA-TRI). The foot related functional status of the patients will be determined by the Turkish version of the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS).
