Uveitis in peripheral spondyloarthritis patients: an ancillary analysis of the ASAS-PerSpA study.

ABSTRACT: Acute anterior uveitis (AAU) is the most frequent extra-musculoskeletal manifestation in spondyloarhtritis (SpA). Previous data on AAU focused on axial disease; therefore, it is not well known whether the clinical characteristics of patients with AAU and recurrent AAU differ between patients with axial and peripheral SpA.
