Two Cases of Psoriatic Arthritis

Abstract

A psoriatic patient may have rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis(or both), osteoarthritis or gout. In so far as possible, each of these must be distinguished on clinical grounds with some help from laboratory tests. Psoriatic arthritis is very similar to rheumatoid arthritis but clinically, it is regarded as a unique disease entity, which is found in 1% to 32% of psoriatic individuals. We herein report two cases of psoriatic arthritis that are thought to be distal type and arthritis mutilans on the basis of clinical, serological and radiological features.
