Abstract
Enthesitis is defined as inflammation at sites of tendon, ligament, joint capsule, or fascia insertion sites to bone, and is a hallmark feature of psoriatic arthritis. Several outcome measures have been developed to assess enthesitis, but none have been validated in psoriatic arthritis. In this evidence-based review, we assess the limited data on treatments for enthesitis and make recommendations for further studies in psoriatic enthesitis.
