Abstract
Some patients with psoriasis have articular involvement that falls wit hin the spectrum of seronegative spondyloarthropathies. This form of a rthritis has been classified by Moll and Wright into five clinical sub sets. Recently this classification has been contested. We review the h istorical evolution of the concept of psoriatic arthritis and discuss its clinical spectrum.
