Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) and related diseases called
spondyloarthropathies (SpA) are the second most common form of
chronic inflammatory arthritis after Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).
Unfortunately, most patients with AS and SpA are either never
diagnosed, or they are inadequately treated. The current mean delay
in the diagnosis of AS ranges from 5 to 10 years, and the

wide-ranging and heterogeneous, and thus a variety of health care
professionals see AS and SpA patients, from primary care physicians
to rheumatologists and other medical and surgical specialists.
