Sažetak

Epidemiological reports and longitudinal cohort studies have shown that patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA)
are oft en aff ected by associated comorbidities that have a signifi cant impact on morbidity, mortality, and quality of life.
Reported comorbidities include obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis,
infl ammatory bowel disease, autoimmune eye disease, depression and anxiety, cancer and opportunistic infections,
fi bromyalgia, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Identifying those comorbidities may aff ect the management, treatment
strategies, and inclusion of other health care professionals to achieve a better clinical outcome. Th e approach to
the PsA patient should be multidisciplinary, with an evaluation of other aspects of the disease beyond the joint and skin
infl ammation.
