요약	"Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic (progressive) painful inflammatory rheumatic disease that involves the back, i.e., the sacroiliac (SI) joints and the spine, that often results in some degree of stiffness (decreased flexibility) of the spine (Fig 1.1). The word ankylosing comes from the Greek root ankylos, meaning bent, although it has now come to imply something that restricts motion (stiffening) and may ultimately result in fusion. When the joint loses its mobility and becomes stiff it is said to be ankylosed. The word spondylitis means inflammation in the joints of the spine, and is derived from spondylos, which is the Greek word for vertebra, and -itis, which implies presence of inflammation. The name therefore suggests that AS is an inflammatory disease of the spine that can lead to stiffening of the back. It is important to point out that the words spondylitis and spondyloarthritis should not be confused with spondylosis, which relates to wear and tear in the spinal column (degenerative disc disease) as we get older"--
