Overview
The diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis is easily confirmed when the cutaneous manifestations of psoriasis coexist with arthritis. There is no definitive diagnostic test for psoriatic arthritis. It must be differentiated from other arthritides based on the joint involvement patterns, clinical features, imaging and laboratory studies. The CASPAR criteria (ClASsification criteria for Psoriatic ARthritis) has been propsed to diagnose psoriatic arthritis using point scoring system. The specificity of this criteria is approximately 98.7% and sensitivity is approximately 91.4%.
Diagnostic Study of Choice
- There is no definitive diagnostic test for psoriatic arthritis.
- Radiography, MRI and CT scan may be helpful in diagnosing psoriatic arthritis from other arthritides.
Diagnostic Criteria
- The diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis is easily confirmed when the cutaneous manifestations of psoriasis coexist with arthritis.[1][2][3][4]
- It must be differentiated from other arthritides based on the joint involvement patterns, clinical features, imaging and laboratory studies.
- The following manifestations may be helpful in diagnosing psoriatic arthritis in an individual in the absence of psoriatic skin lesions.[5]
| Family history of psoriasis in first degree relatives |
| Asymmetric joint distribution |
| Involvement of distal joints |
| Nail involvement (eg, pitting, nail bed destruction, onycholysis) |
| Dactylitis |
| Hidden psoriatic plaques |
- The CASPAR criteria (ClASsification criteria for Psoriatic ARthritis):[6]
- The CASPAR study stated that a patient present with inflammatory articular disease (inflammatory peripheral arthritis, enthesitis, spondylitis) can be diagnosed as having psoriatic arthritis if a total of at least three points are present from the presence of the following possibilities.
| Manifestation | Point score |
|---|---|
| Skin lesions | Current psoriasis: 2 points
Previous history of psoriasis: 1 point The family history of psoriasis: 1 point |
| Dactylitis | 1 point |
| Nail dystrophy | 1 point |
| Juxtra articular new bone formation | 1 point |
| Negative of rheumatoid factor | 1 point |
- The specificity is approximately 98.7% and sensitivity is approximately 91.4%.
