Q

early v. late OA

A
  • early (erosion) = chondrocytes proliferate, edema, inflammation, extracellular matrix production, metalloprotease activation, which act together to remodel the cartilage and initiate changes in the synovium and subchondral bone
  • late (osteophytes) = repetitive injury and chronic inflammation lead to chondrocyte drop out, marked loss of cartilage, and extensive subchodrl bone changes (microfractures, bone thickening and sclerosis, cyst formation, osteophyte formation)

22
Q

*** 4 unifying features of seronegative spondyloarthopathies

A
  • pathologic changes in the ligamentous attachments rather than synovium
  • involvement of sacroiliac joints, with or without other joints
  • absence of rheumatoid factor
  • association with HLA-B27
    (usually axial skeleton)
23
Q
  • most common subtype spondyloarthropathy
  • 2.5:1 male female
  • gradual onset of IBP
  • acute anterior uveitis most common extra-articular manifestation
  • can lead to sacroiliac fusion and spinal syndesmophyte formation
A

ankylosing spondylitis
