What is spinal enthesopathy?06/25/2000 |
Would you please tell me what spinal enthesopathy is and what it is caused by?
The word enthesopathy means inflammation of a tendon, ligament, or cartilage at its insertion into bone. Spinal enthesopathies occur in a group of disorders known as the spondyloarthropathies, which include ankylosing spondylitis, reactive arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and the inflammatory bowel diseases.
