Özet
Objectives: Destructive spondyloarthropathy (dSpA) occurs due to inflammatory destruction of axial joints due to beta2-microglobulin (beta2-M) accumulation in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT). This study aimed to investigate the frequency of dSpA in ESRD patients receiving RRT, by the diagnostic criteria sets of inflammatory back pain (IBP) and inflammatory classical SpA.
Methods: A total of 140 patients were included. The data of the demographic informations, laboratory tests, clinical findings, HLA allele subgroups were collected. Sacroiliac and lateral feet X-rays and if necessary sacroiliac tomography were taken in patients with dSpA related pain. dSpA was investigated according to the Amor and ESSG criteria sets.
Results: Fifty two patients were women (37%). The mean age was 51 ± 15 years. IBP and sacroiliitis were detected in 22 and 28 of the patients, respectively. There was a significant difference according to sacroiliitis and IBP in terms of CRP (p=0.028, p=0.043). dSpA were detected in 21 (15%) patients. Presence of HLA-A1 and duration of HD were determined as independent risk factors for dSpA.
Conclusions: In the diagnosis of dSpA, the character and inflammatory origin of the pain and inflammatory markers should be investigated in addition to the radiological criteria.
