ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to review the spectrum of primary periarthropathies. Rheumatology clinic, Ibn Sina teaching hospital, Mosul, Iraq. Prospective non-experimental clinical study. Two hundred patients having primary periarthropathy were included in the study. Secondary cases of periarthropathy were excluded. Patients with multiple periarthropathy were recorded. Two hundred patients were studied, 114 were females and 33 were males who had one type of periarthropathy; the remaining had combinations of periarthropathies. The mean age for periarthropathy was more than 40, except for tendinitis [36.8 +/- 10.5]. The most common periarthropathies is the shoulder 93 [46.5%], followed by Carpal tunnel syndrome 57 [28.5%] and planter fasciitis 34 [17%], history was significantly high in these three conditions. Various combinations of periarthropathies were seen in the study group. Shoulder periarthropathies and CTS were the most common, 46.5% and 28.5% respectively. The concept of oligoarthropathy and possibly poly-periarthropathy needs further research. Constitutional factors, for example, gender and pro-inflammatory mechanisms need further studies
