摘要
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease characterized by of peripheral arthritis, enthesitis, spondylitis and psoriasis. The mean age at onset of PsA is in the range of 30-50 years. In clinically, approximately 17% of patients develop arthritis before the onset of psoriasis. Osgood Schlatter syndrome presents in growing children (boys, 12-15 years; girls, 8-12 years) with local pain, swelling and tenderness over the tibial tuberosity. In this paper, Osgood Schlatter syndrome causing bilateral knee pain during the fallow-up of a patient with atypical PsA is reported. (Turk J Rheumatol 2009; 24: 225-7)
