- Abstract
Spondyloarthritis is a heterogeneous group of chronic inflammatory diseases with similar clinical and pathophysiological mechanisms affecting the axial skeleton and peripheral joints. It is frequently seen in the 2nd and 3rd decades. Negative rheumatoid factor, positivity of human leukocyte antigen B27 tissue antigen, sacroiliitis and spondylitis, primarily involving lower extremity joints peripheral oligoarthritis, presence of enthesopathy, urogenital system and intestinal infections, psoriatic skin lesions, anterior uveitis attacks, especially onset at young ages and familial genetic predisposition are the common clinical features of the group. In axial spondyloarthritis, the sacroiliac joint and spine are primarily affected. In addition, anterior chest wall involvement has been reported at varying rates. Pain occurs in the anterior chest wall as a result of arthritis of the sternoclavicular joint, manubriosternal joint and sternocostal joints. Differential diagnosis of diseases affecting the sternoclavicular joint is important in terms of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment procedures. In this article, a case of axial spondyloarthritis accompanied by sternoclavicular joint involvement is presented in the light of current literature.
