A woman with selective IgA deficiency and severe ankylosing spondylitis (AS), complicated by intractable peripheral arthritis, is described. Three previous cases of selective IgA deficiency and AS have been reported, all of whom had severe AS. It is suggested that selective IgA deficiency is a poor prognostic factor in AS and therefore warrants further investigation to determine the clinical course of such patients.
本文描述了一名患有选择性IgA缺乏症和严重强直性脊柱炎(AS)并伴有顽固性外周关节炎的女性患者。此前已报道过3例选择性IgA缺乏症合并AS的病例,所有患者均患有严重的AS。提示选择性IgA缺乏症是AS的一个不良预后因素,因此有必要进一步研究以确定这类患者的临床病程。
