Rheumatoid ArthritisAbstract
We report a case of middle aged man who presented with inflammatory low back pain with restriction of movement and enthesopathy. Later on the developed inflammatory pain affecting small and large joints of upper and lower limbs associated with morning stiffness with deformities. There is also positive family history. So, though the incidence is very rare the co-existence of rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis in this case would be a possibility.
