Objective: To compare PSpo patients with those with predominantly peripheral disease.

Method: Retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 155 patients with PsA. Results: 127 patients (81.9%) had peripheral and 28 patients (18%) had axial disease. PSpo patients had greater HLAB27 and Uveitis percentages (32%, 14% successively) than those with peripheral disease. 64% of patients subsequently developed peripheral joint involvement predominantly oligo-arthritis pattern (72%).

Conclusion: further prospective observational studies comparing peripheral and axial PsA are required to elucidate our observation.
