Abstract
The spondyloarthritis (SpA) or spondylo-enthesoarthritis represent a group of seronegative inflammatory joint diseases that share many epidemiological, pathogenetic, clinical, and radiological aspects [1]. The term spondylo-enthesoarthritis emphasizes the three main aspects of these diseases, such as the involvement of the spine, the entheses, and peripheral joints.
