Abstract EN
Objective : The aim of this study is to review the spectrum of primary periarthropathies.
Setting : Rheumatology clinic, Ibn Sina teaching hospital, Mosul, Iraq.
Design : Prospective non-experimental clinical study.
Method : Two hundred patients having primary periarthropathy were included in the study.
Secondary cases of periarthropathy were excluded.
Patients with multiple periarthropathy were recorded.
Result : Two hundred patients were studied, 114 were females and 33 were males who had one type of periarthropathy; the remaining had combinations of periarthropathies.
The mean age for periarthropathy was more than 40, except for tendinitis (36.8 ± 10.5).
The most common periarthropathies is the shoulder 93 (46.5%), followed by Carpal tunnel syndrome 57 (28.5 %) and planter fasciitis 34 (17 %), history was significantly high in these three conditions.
Various combinations of periarthropathies were seen in the study group.
Conclusion: Shoulder periarthropathies and CTS were the most common, 46.5 % and 28.5 % respectively.
The concept of oligoarthropathy and possibly poly-periarthropathy needs further research.
Constitutional factors, for example, gender and pro-inflammatory mechanisms need further studies.
