The Subject

Foot and ankle problems have been the subject of major advances in the rheumatology in recent years. This chapter reviews the anatomy of the foot and covers the manifestations of foot pathology for the major conditions: rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, the seronegative arthritides, connective tissue disease, crystal diseases, and miscellaneous conditions including hypermobility syndrome. Relevant local conditions including plantar fasciitis, tendinopathy, and neuroma are addressed separately. The principles of assessing and treating the foot and ankle in rheumatology are covered, along with the relevant specific approaches best suited to dealing with problems associated with the major conditions.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is common in most forms of connective tissue disease (CTD); the prevalent type of PH depends on the particular CTD. Thus, pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is dominantly associated with scleroderma, while postcapillary PH is most common in rheumatoid arthritis and lung disease-associated PH is typically found in myositis and sarcoidosis.Considerable expertise is required to identify, diagnose, and manage CTD-PH, as the primary physicians providing the majority of care for this population, rheumatologists, need a good working knowledge of CTD-PH, its rather subtle presentation, and how to access the necessary investigations to screen for and identify patients with PH. The role of the rheumatologist does not stop at diagnosis; in some conditions such as lupus, optimizing immunosuppression is key to the management of PH, and unlike simple idiopathic PAH, the natural history of CTD-PH is often punctuated by complications of the CTD rather than just events due to progression of PH or therapy-related adverse events.The aim of this article is to provide an overview of all forms of CTD-PH, and to provide an easy reference source on current best practice.
