enthesis—theregionwhereatendonorligamentinsertsintobone.
HLA-B27 is an MHC class I molecule that is suspected to play a role in presenting antigensthatcantriggerautoimmunity.AlthoughHLA-B27ispresentinapproximately8%of thegeneralpopulation,itispresentingreaterthan90%ofpatientswithankylosingspondylitis, 30%to70%ofpatientswitheitherreactivearthritisorinflammatoryboweldisease,40%to
50% ofpatientswith PsA,and70% ofpatientswith undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy.
23
However,because the incidenceof spondyloarthropathyis approximately 1% in the general population,itisimportanttorememberthatlessthan10%ofpeoplewithHLA-B27develop spondyloarthropathy.
Ingeneral,thepatternofarthritisinspondyloarthropathytendstobeasymmetric,involving mediumandlargejoints,andinvolvingfourorlessjoints(oligoarthritis).Makingthediagnosis is difficult because there are no reliable blood tests for the conditions and because the radiologicfindingsmaytakedecadestodevelop.Becausethesepatientstendtopresentintheir secondthroughfifthdecadesoflife,manypatientsareactiveandwilloftenattributetheirjoint painstowhateverphysicalactivitytheyhaverecentlybeenperforming.Theymayreportthat their injuryhas taken longer than expectedto heal, or they may reportthat they have been repeatedlygettinginjured.Jointswelling,morningstiffness,theinvolvementofmultiplejoints, a family history of psoriasis or inflammatory bowel disease, and a history of a favorable response of the joint pain to oral corticosteroids may all be clues to the presence of a spondyloarthropathy.Thespondyloarthropathiesmaypresentwithsystemicsymptoms,butthis isnotaprevalentfeatureasitisinrheumatoidarthritisandlupus.
Enthesitis(Fig.2-3) is acommonfeatureinallspondyloarthropathies, asseveralstudies have demonstrated. For example, in the study of D’Agostino et al.,24 164 patients with
spondyloarthropathy were compared with 34 controls (mechanical low back pain, and 30 rheumatoidarthritispatients).Foreachpatient,thefollowingregionswerescannedusinggray scale and power Doppler ultrasound: greater trochanter of the hip, plantar fascia, patellar ligament, quadriceps tendon, pubis, Achilles tendon, medial and lateral epicondyles of the elbow,andtibialisanteriorinsertion.Thepresenceoferosionsatthetendoninsertionandthe presence of power Doppler signal within the tendon allowed significant discrimination of spondyloarthropathy(SpA)patientsfromcontrols; 81% of SpApatients hadpower doppler (PD)signalinatleastoneenthesis,whereaszerocontrolshadPDsignal;19%ofSpApatients
haderosionscomparedwithnocontrolsthathaderosions.InthestudyofD’Agostinoetal.,
25
powerDopplersignalatbaselineinatleastoneenthesiswasthebestpredictorofSpAat2 years. Dactylitis is another clinical finding that tends to be associated with spondyloarthropathy.Patientswhohavethisphenotypedevelopswellingofeitheratoeora fingerthroughouttheentirelengthofthedigitsuchthatitappearstoresembleasausage.

AnkylosingSpondylitis
This isaconditionthatischaracterizedbysacroiliitisandfusionofthesacroiliacjoints as wellasthe spine,whichusuallytakesplace after manyyearsofdisease (Fig.2-4). Patients presentwithinflammatorybackpainthatisworstinthemorningandimprovesasthedaygoes on.Often,peripheralsymptomsinanasymmetricdistributionoflargermedianjointsarealso present. Previous classification criteria have focused on X-ray findings, which may take
decadestodevelop.Therefore,newclassificationcriteriahavebeendeveloped26thatfocuson acombinationofimagingbyX-rayorMRI,thepresenceofHLA-B27,andclinicalfeatures.In contrast to rheumatoid arthritis, initiation of therapy begins with NSAIDs, but the recommendation is to change to TNF blockers if symptoms are not controlled after a few months. Furthermore, the IL-23/IL-17 cytokine pathway has been recently implicated in ankylosingspondylitisandotherspondyloarthropathies.Elevatedlevelsofthecytokineshave beenfoundinthebloodandjointsofthesepatients.Agentsthatblockthis pathwayarenow availablefortherapy.

PsoriaticArthritis
About30%ofpatientswithpsoriasiswilldevelopPsA,and50%ofthesepatientsmaygoon todevelopsomejointdeformities.PsAdiffersfromotherspondyloarthropathiesinthatthere are five clinical patterns of arthritis that may occur in isolation or in overlap with other phenotypes: an asymmetric oligoarthritis (the typical spondyloarthropathy pattern); a rheumatoid arthritis–likepresentationwith symmetric polyarthritis ofthe small joints ofthe hands and feet; distal interphalangeal joint involvement (often with dactylitis), axial involvement;severedestructiveinvolvementalsoknownasarthritismutilans.PsAmaycoexist witheithergoutorosteoarthritis,soitisimportanttoruleouttheseconditionspriortomaking thediagnosis.
In about 15% of patients, the arthritis may precede the joint symptoms. In addition, psoriasismaybelocatedinregionsthatthepatientmayfailtoappreciateormentionsuchas thescalp,behindtheears,theumbilicus,thepenis,andtheglutealfold.Psoriaticnailchanges includingpitting, ridging,andonycholysismayormay not be present.Classificationcriteria
forPsA27includethepresenceofaninflammatoryarthritisplustwoormoreofthefollowing: evidenceofcurrentpsoriasis,historyofpsoriasisorafirst-orsecond-degreefamilynowwith psoriasis;naildystrophy;negativeRF;dactylitisorhistoryofdactylitis;X-rayshowingjuxta­articularnewboneformation.Occasionally,patientswillhaveanelevatedESRorCRP,but notfrequently.X-rayfindingsmightincludesacroiliitis,pencilandcupdeformityofthefingers ortoes(awhittlingdowntoapointofthedistalaspectoftheproximalphalanxpairedwitha flaringoftheproximalportionofthemoredistalphalanxsuchthattheappearanceisthatofa pencil going into a cup), and erosions. On ultrasound, one may see synovial thickening, effusion,synovitisortenosynovitis,erosion,orenthesitis.
Treatmentoftheskindiseasedependsonthelocationandseverityandmaybelimitedto topical therapy or light therapy, with systemic therapy reserved for extensive disease. Treatmentofthearthritisagaindependsontheseverityofsymptoms.NSAIDsmaybereserved formilddisease,butmoreaggressivearthritisisusuallytreatedwithafirstlineofDMARD suchasmethotrexate,followedbyadditionorswitchingtobiologicagentsincludingtheTNF blockers,ablockeroftheIL-12/23pathway(ustekinumab),oraphosphodiesterase4inhibitor (apremilast).
CrystallineArthritis
The mostcommon crystallinearthropathies that presentinthelower extremity are gout and pseudogout. Both entities share the theme of a salt precipitating within a joint and/or surrounding tissues and triggering a robust inflammatory response. In gout, the salt is monosodium urate, whereas inpseudogout thesalt is calcium pyrophosphate. On occasion, bothcrystalsmaybefoundwithinthejoint.Inaddition,the crystalsmaybefoundwithinthe jointevenintheabsenceofaflareofarthritis. Whenthejointistraumatizedorifthereisa septic process within the joint, there may be release of the crystals, which then may be observedinthesynovialfluid.Therefore,thepresenceofcrystalsinasynovialaspiratedoes notruleoutthepresenceofinfection.

Gout
Gout is one of the most painful arthropathies and, if untreated, has the potential to be destructivetoaffectedjoints(Fig.2-5).Oneofthemorecommonlyinvolvedjointsisthe1st MTP;however,itisimportanttorememberthatspondyloarthropathyandrheumatoidarthritis mayalsoaffectthisjoint.Theonsetofpainduringaflareofgoutisusuallyrapid;sometimes, within hours the painlevel can crescendo: oftenpeople cannotbear weight onthe affected joint. Erythema and swelling are frequently observed. Fever and elevated white count, althoughnotcommon,canbeassociatedwithsevereflares.Ifgoutisuntreated,itmayprogress totophaceousgoutinwhichlargedepositsofuricacidgrowtobepalpablebeneaththeskin andmayerodeintoadjacentbone.Thedorsumofthehandsandfeet,theextensorsurfaceofthe elbows,andtheearsarecommonlyaffectedlocations.
Goutiscausedbyelevateduricacidinthebloodandtissue.Whentheconcentrationofuric acid exceeds the limits of solubility, it tends to precipitate as sodium-urate salt in the extracellulartissues.Thepresenceofahigh uricaciddoesnotguaranteegout;indeed,there are many patients with very high uric acids who have never had a gout flare. Therefore, asymptomatic hyperuricemia does not need to be treated prophylactically. When uric acid crystals precipitate with the joint, they cause acute inflammation as they are ingested by neutrophils. The crystals may activate complement directly or may stimulate leukocytes to produceproinflammatorymediatorssuchas IL-1.Goutcrystals maybe identified withinthe synovialfluidasneedle-shapedcrystalsthatareeitheryelloworblueunderapolarizingfilter. Whenthe polarizing filter is oriented parallel to the directionof the crystal, itwill appear yellow;whenthepolarizerfilterisorientedperpendiculartothedirectionofthecrystal,itwill appearblue.Uricacidisawasteproductofnucleicacidmetabolism,andthesourcesofuric acidinpatientswithgoutarebothfoodsthatarehighinpurinesandalsofrombreakdownof the DNA from one’s own cells. In addition, 80% of patients with elevated uric acid have decreasedexcretionthroughthe kidneys. Alcoholand somemedicationssuch as aspirinand diureticscanalsodecreaseuricacidexcretioninthekidney,precipitatingaflareofgout.
TypicalX-rayfindingsofgoutincludepunchedouterosionswithoverhangingedgesand theappearanceoftophiorcollectionsofuricacidcrystals.Thesefindingsmayalsobeseenin ultrasoundassociatedwithsynovialthickening,effusions,andincreasedpowerDopplersignal
(Fig.2-6).InanarticlepublishedbyThieleandSchlesinger,2837jointsfrom23patientswith
crystal-provengoutwereexaminedbygrayscaleultrasoundandcomparedwith23controls. The“doublecontoursign”(Fig.2-7) was seenin92% ofthegoutpatientsandnoneofthe controls. Tophi were observed in all 1st MTPs of gout patients and none of the controls. Erosionswereseenin65%ofthe1stMTPsofgoutpatientsandonecontrolpatient.

MostNSAIDsareeffectiveattreatingacutegout,butoftentheirusemaybeinconflictwith one ofthe manycomorbidities thatare associated with gout.Colchicineis anold drug that inhibitsmicrotubuleformationinleukocytesandinterfereswithcellmigration.Itisoftenused atadoseof1.2mgoncefollowedby0.6mgshortlythereafter.Colchicineisthencontinuedat
0.6mgonceortwicedailyuntilsymptomsresolve.Inaddition,itmaybeusedonanongoing basis at 0.6 mg once or twice daily as a prophylactic agent to prevent flares. Intravenous colchicine has the potential to cause severe marrow suppression and so is rarely used. Corticosteroidssuchasprednisoneandmethylprednisoneareveryeffectiveatcontrollinggout flaresbothinoralformsandwheninjectedintoasymptomaticjoint.Inpatientswithchronic goutsymptoms,tophi,oruratenephropathy,uricacid–loweringtherapymaybeinitiatedwith eitherallopurinolorfebuxostat.Thetargeturicacidinpatientswithchronicgoutislessthan
6.0 mg/dL or less than 5.0 mg/dL in patients with tophi. Uric acid levels equilibrate approximately2weeksafterchangingthedose ofaurate-loweringagent;therefore,frequent follow-upisrequiredtotitratethedosetothatwhichachievesthedesiredlevelofuricacid.
Pseudogout(CalciumPyrophosphateDeposition)
Pseudogout is similar to gout in that symptoms are also caused by a salt, calcium pyrophosphate,whichhasdepositedwithinjointsandsurroundingtissues.Likegoutcrystals, pseudogoutcrystalsmayalsobeobservedwithinjointaspirates;however,thecrystalsappear rhomboidshapedandhaveablueappearancewhentheyareorientedparalleltothepolarizing filter.Pseudogout can take either an acute or a chronic form. When patients have anacute pseudogoutflare,the commonjointsinvolvedarethe kneesandwrists.Becausepseudogout crystalscontaincalcium,theyaremoreeasilyseenonX-raysthangoutcrystalsandoftenmay
beobservedinthekneesandwrist.InthestudyofFilippouetal.,2942crystal-provencalcium pyrophosphatedihydrate(CPPD)patientswereexaminedbygrayscaleultrasound.Themost frequently observed sites for CPPD were the femoral condyle of the knee (Fig. 2-7), the menisci, and the triangular fibrocartilage complex of the wrist. Occasionally, calcium pyrophosphatemaybeseensurroundingthedensofthe2ndcervicalvertebrae.Thismaycause headaches and/or neck pain and is called crowded dens syndrome—diagnosis is made by computerizedaxialtomographyscanofthecervicalspine.Riskfactorsforpseudogoutinclude ochronosis, hyperparathyroidism, thyroid abnormalities, hemochromatosis, Wilson disease, hypophosphatemia, and hypomagnesemia. Treatment of pseudogout is more challenging than goutbecausethereare noagentstoreducethecrystal burden.Therapy is usuallylimited to NSAIDs,corticosteroids,andcolchicine.

CONCLUSIONS
Rheumatic diseases of the lower extremity maypresent in a similar fashion to mechanical problems.Itisimportanttoidentifytheseconditionsearlybecausesomehavethepotentialto causepermanentdamagewithoutappropriatetherapy.Newtherapieshaverevolutionizedthe treatments of these conditions. Clues to a systemic illness may be found in associated symptomsoronthephysicalexamination;therefore,itisimportanttoalwaysperformacareful history and physical examination when inflammatory disease is suspected. In addition, the growing useofMSKUSismaking earlyandmore accuratediagnosispossible. Some ofthe more common rheumatic diseases that may be observed in the lower extremity include rheumatoidarthritis,spondyloarthropathies,andcrystallinearthropathies.
