Comparison of radiological changes in symphysis pubis and disease activity parameters in male patients with ankylosing spondylitis
Öz: Introduction: To determine the prevalence of involvement of symphysis pubis among male patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and to analyze the relationship among this involvement, demographic data, clinical activity of the disease and radiological findings. Methods: Overall, 73 male patients diagnosed with AS who visited our clinic for follow-up were included in the study. In this retrospective study, clinical and radiological parameters were collected. In clinical evaluation, vertebral Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) were used. In AP pelvis radiography, symphysis pubis changes were rated as 0–4. Modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spinal Score (M-SASSS) was calculated from the cervical and lumbar lateral radiography images. Results: Symphysis pubis involvement was radiologically observed in 45 patients (61.7%). The mean age (43.9 ± 12.6) of patients with symphysis pubis involvement was higher than the average (36.9 ± 9.0) of patients without involvement (p = 0.026). Average M-SASSS of patients with symphysis pubis involvement (15.9 ± 11.9) was higher than the average of patients without involvement (8.4 ± 7.4), and there was a significant positive correlation between symphysis pubis involvement and M-SASSS (p=0.002). BASDAI and BASMI averages of patients were not significant (p = 0.973 and p = 0.105, respectively). Conclusion: Symphysis pubis involvement is a common manifestation of AS and can be used to predict vertebral radiological involvement.

Öz: Giriş: Ankilozan spondilitli (AS) erkek hastalarda simfizis pubis tutulum prevalansını belirlemek ve bu tutulum ile demografik veriler, hastalığın klinik aktivitesi ve radyolojik bulgular arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Yöntem: Genel olarak kliniğimize takip için başvuran AS tanılı 73 erkek hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Bu retrospektif çalışmada; klinik ve radyolojik parametreler toplandı. Klinik değerlendirmede vertebral Vizüel Analog Skala (VAS) skoru, Bath Ankilozan Spondilit Hastalık Aktivite İndeksi (BASDAI), Bath Ankilozan Spondilit Metroloji İndeksi (BASMİ) ve Bath Ankilozan Spondilit Fonksiyonel İndeksi (BASFI) kullanıldı. AP pelvis radyografisinde simfizis pubis değişiklikleri 0-4 olarak derecelendirildi. Servikal ve lomber lateral grafi görüntülerinden Modifiye Stoke Ankilozan Spondilit Spinal Skoru (M-SASSS) hesaplandı. Bulgular: Simfizis pubis tutulumu radyolojik olarak 45 hastada (%61,7) görüldü. Simfizis pubis tutulumu olan hastaların ortalama yaşı (43,9 ± 12,6), tutulumu olmayan hastaların ortalamasından (36,9 ± 9,0) daha yüksekti (p = 0,026). Simfizis pubis tutulumu olan hastaların M-SASSS ortalaması (15,9 ± 11,9), tutulumu olmayan hastaların ortalamasından (8,4 ± 7,4) daha yüksekti ve simfizis pubis tutulumu ile M-SASSS arasında anlamlı pozitif korelasyon vardı (p=0,002). Hastaların BASDAI ve BASMI ortalamaları anlamlı değildi (sırasıyla p=0,973 ve p=0,105). Sonuç: Simfizis pubis tutulumu AS'nin sık görülen bir bulgusudur ve vertebra radyolojik tutulumunu öngörmede kullanılabilir.
