Coexisting ankylosing spondylitis and hereditary multiple exostoses have rarely been reported (three patients) previously. A 27-year-old man with hereditary multiple exostoses is presented as a fourth report. At the age of 15 years, the patient had multiple exostoses around the knee, ankle and shoulder joints. He was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis 3 years ago. The patient's sister and his 3 brothers also have multiple exostoses without any family history of spondyloarthropathy or inflammatory arthritis. The aim of this report is to discuss an interesting coexistence of these two diseases. The increasing number of reported patients who have a coexistence of these two diseases might suggest that the association of these two diseases is stronger than a coincidence.
既往很少有关于同时存在强直性脊柱炎和遗传性多发性骨软骨瘤的报道(仅3例患者)。本文报道了一名患有遗传性多发性骨软骨瘤的27岁男性,这是第四例相关报道。患者15岁时,在膝关节、踝关节和肩关节周围出现多发性骨软骨瘤。3年前,他被诊断为强直性脊柱炎。患者的姐姐和3个兄弟也患有多发性骨软骨瘤,但均无脊柱关节病或炎性关节炎的家族史。本报告旨在探讨这两种疾病有趣的共存情况。这两种疾病共存的报道患者数量不断增加,可能表明这两种疾病之间的关联并非巧合,而是更为密切。
