SpA is the most frequent extraintestinal manifestation in patients with IBD. Separate recommendations/guidelines are available for the treatment of axial and peripheral SpA and for both Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis. When IBD and SpA coexist, the therapeutic strategy should be modulated taking into account the variable manifestations and complications of IBD in terms of intestinal and extraintestinal features, and the clinical manifestations of SpA.
