Overview
If left untreated psoriatic arthritis may lead to severe joint destruction and deformity resulting in loss of physical function and reduced quality of life. Psoriatic arthritis is associated with various comorbid conditions including cardiovascular disease ( increased risk of atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, heart failure), metabolic syndrome, liver disease, diabetes mellitus, depression and osteoporosis. Prognosis is good with early diagnosis and treatment. Overall survival rate also depends on management of comorbid conditions along with arthritis treatment.
Natural History, Complications and Prognosis
- If left untreated psoriatic arthritis may lead to severe joint destruction and deformity resulting in loss of physical function and reduced quality of life.
- Common complications or comorbid conditions associated with psoriatic arthritis include:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
- Metabolic syndrome
- Progressive joint destruction and deformity
- Hypertension
- Increase insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus
- Dyslipidemia
- Increased atherosclerotic risk
- Myocardial infarction
- Congestive heart failure
- Arrythmias
- Stroke
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Osteoporosis
- Depression
- Increased risk for malignancy (breast, prostate, and lung)
- uveitis
- Non alcoholic fatty liver disease
- Decreased quality of life
- Prognosis is generally good with early diagnosis and treatment with DMARDs and TNF inhibitors. Overall survival rate also depends on management of comorbid conditions along with arthritis treatment.[8][9]
