Psoriatic arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the joints and skin. It is characterized by osteolysis, bony proliferation, and can cause dactylitis, enthesitis, spondylitis, and various forms of arthritis. While it is classified as a type of spondyloarthritis, it is distinct from rheumatoid arthritis in that it is usually seronegative. The presentation and pattern of joint involvement in psoriatic arthritis can vary between patients and change over time, with the most common forms being asymmetrical oligoarthritis or symmetrical polyarthritis. Diagnosis is based on clinical features and classification criteria such as the CASPAR criteria.

INTRODUCTION TO PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS (PSA) Chronic progressive, inflammatory disorder of the joints and skin1 Characterized by osteolysis and bony proliferation1 Clinical manifestations include dactylitis, enthesitis, osteoperiostitis, large joint oligoarthritis, arthritis mutilans, sacroiliitis, spondylitis, and distal interphalangeal arthritis1 PsA is one of a group of disorders known as the spondyloarthropathies2 Males and females are equally affected3 PsA can range from mild nondestructive disease to a severely rapid and destructive arthropathy3 Usually Rheumatoid Factor negative3 Radiographic damage can be noted in up to 47% of patients at a median interval of two years despite clinical improvement with standard DMARD therapy4 1Taylor WJ.

EPIDEMIOLOGY OF PSA • Recent review undertaken to 20061,2 − Incidence Europe+North America: 3 to 23.1 cases/105 Japan 0.1 case/105 − Prevalence • Europe+North America 20 and 420 cases/105 Japan 1 case/105 Population-based study/Minnesota (CASPAR criteria)2,3 − Incidence 7.2 cases/105 (men 9.1, female 5.4) − Prevalence 158 cases/105 The prevalence of PsA is assumed to be larger than expected, since enthesitis associated with PsA can develop without symptoms or signs that are recognizable by patients themselves or the physicians4 1 Alamos et al.

- 18. DEFINITION OF ENTHESITIS Entheses are the regions at which a tendon, ligament, or joint capsule attaches to bone1 Inflammation at the entheses is called enthesitis and is a hallmark feature of PsA1,2 Pathogenesis of enthesitis has yet to be fully elucidated2 Isolated peripheral enthesitis may be the only rheumatologic sign of PsA in a subset of patients3 1McGonagle D.

- 19. SYMMETRICAL POLYARTHRITIS - - - Rheumatoid like pattern. 15% Hands, wrists, ankles, and feet may be involved. D/D from RA by DIP joint involvement, Morning stiffness Fusiform deformity Wind swept deformity Relative asymmetry, Subcutaneous nodules absent. RF negative. Milder, with less deformity.
- 20. DISTAL INTERPHALANGEAL ARTHROPATHY Classical form Less common 16% Involvement of the nail with significant inflammation of the paronychia and swelling of the digital tuft may be prominent, 30 pits with inflammatory arthritis of DIP joints considered diagnostic.
- 21. Psoriatic arthritis involving the distal phalangeal joint.
- 22. ARTHRITIS MUTILANS Rare form 1-5% Some reports suggest up to 16% of patients. Resorption of bone (osteolysis), with dissolution of the joint, is observed as the "pencil-in-cup" radiographic finding and leads to redundant, overlying skin with a telescoping motion of the digit. This "opera-glass hand" is M>F and is more frequent in early-onset disease.
- 23. ARTHRITIS MUTILANS, A TYPICALLY PSORIATIC PATTERN OF ARTHRITIS, WHICH IS ASSOCIATED WITH A CHARACTERISTIC "PENCIL-IN-CUP" RADIOGRAPHIC APPEARANCE OF DIGITS. Arthritis mutilans (ie, "pencil-in-cup" deformities).
- 24. SPONDYLITIS WITH OR WITHOUT SACROILIITIS - - Affect 5% of patients and has a male predominance. Can occur in conjunction with other subgroups of PA. Spondylitis may occurWithout radiologic evidence of sacroiliitis, which frequently tends to be asymmetrical, May appear radiologically without the classic symptoms of morning stiffness in the lower back. Thus, the correlation between symptoms and radiologic signs of sacroiliitis can be poor. Vertebral involvement differs from that observed in AS.
- 25. - - Vertebrae are affected asymmetrically, and the atlantoaxial joint may be involved with erosion of the odontoid and subluxation (with attendant neurologic complications). Therapy may limit subluxation-associated disability. Unusual radiologic feature nonmarginal asymmetrical syndesmophytes (characteristic), paravertebral ossification, and, less commonly, vertebral fusion with disk calcification. Lateral radiograph of the cervical spine shows syndesmophytes at the C2-3 and C6-7 levels, with zygapophyseal joint fusio

- 43. OTHER AGENTS Several other agents have been tried, including vitaminD3, bromocriptine, peptide T, and fish oils, but their efficacy remains to be proven. Antimalarials, particularly hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), are usually avoided in patients with psoriasis for fear of precipitating exfoliative dermatitis or exacerbating psoriasis. However, 2 studies showed that these reactions did not occur in patients who were treated with hydroxychloroquine; therefore, this drug is occasionally used to treat PA. Systemic corticosteroids are usually avoided because of possible rebound of the skin disease upon withdrawal.
- 44. SURGICAL CARE IN PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS Arthroscopic synovectomy has been effective in treating severe, chronic, monoarticular synovitis. Joint replacement and forms of reconstructive therapy are occasionally necessary. Patients in severe pain or with significant contractures may be referred for possible surgical intervention; however, high rates of recurrence of joint contractures have been noted after surgical release, especially in the hand.
- 45. Hip and knee joint replacements have been successful. Arthrodesis and arthroplasty have also been used on joints, such as the thumb PIP joint. The wrist often spontaneously fuses, and this may relieve the patient's pain without surgical intervention. For arthritis mutilans, surgical intervention is usually directed toward salvage of the hand; combinations of arthrodesis, arthroplasty, and bone grafts to lengthen the digits may be used.
- 46. CONSULTATIONS AND MONITORING IN PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS If the patient's physiatrist feels uncomfortable with prescribing medications for PA, referral to a rheumatologist with more experience with these agents may be advisable. The physiatrist may then concentrate on functional restoration of the patient. Referral to a surgeon should be considered for appropriate patients. Children with juvenile PA should be examined by an ophthalmologist annually to check for the several forms of eye inflammation usually associated with various forms of juvenile arthritis. In addition, consultation with an orthopedic surgeon is warranted for individuals who may benefit from joint replacement, arthrodesis, or contracture release.
- 47. DIETARY CONSIDERATIONS For people who have morning stiffness, the optimal time for taking an NSAID may be after the evening meal and again upon awakening. Taking NSAIDs with food can reduce stomach discomfort. Any NSAID can damage the mucous layer and cause ulcers and GI bleeding when taken for long periods. Cyclooxygenase (COX)–2 selective inhibitors are associated with a lower prevalence of gastric ulcer formation.
- 48. PHYSICAL THERAPY IN PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS The rehabilitation treatment program should be individualized and should be started early in the disease process. Such a program should consider the use of the following: Rest - Local and systemic Exercise - Passive, active, stretching, strengthening, and endurance Modalities - Heat, cold Orthotics - Upper and lower extremities, spinal
- 49. DETERRENCE AND PREVENTION Lithium and withdrawal from systemic corticosteroids are well known to cause disease flare-ups. Other drugs that have been implicated include beta blockers, antimalarials (although, as previously mentioned, evidence suggests that hydroxychloroquine does not exacerbate skin lesions), and NSAIDs. If skin lesions worsen with an NSAID, switch to a different family of NSAID. Prevention includes rest and exercise. Joint protection, including splints, braces, and other supports, may be helpful. No definitive prevention exists, because this is a chronic disease that can wax and wane.
