“…The results of these researches have shown that a variety of cardiovascular problems are directly associated with HLA-B27. Aortic root dilation, aortic valve and mitral valve regurgitation, myocarditis, heart failure, pericarditis, pericardial effusion, atrioventricular (AV) node conduction block, and J-wave syndrome are some of these diseases [6,7]. On the other hand, electrophysiologic studies showed that conduction disorders in the AV node are more prevalent in carriers of HLA-B27 [6].…”

“…Aortic root dilation, aortic valve and mitral valve regurgitation, myocarditis, heart failure, pericarditis, pericardial effusion, atrioventricular (AV) node conduction block, and J-wave syndrome are some of these diseases [6,7]. On the other hand, electrophysiologic studies showed that conduction disorders in the AV node are more prevalent in carriers of HLA-B27 [6]. In the current study we aimed to evaluate the association between the AV node blocks and the presence of HLA-B27 in Iranian patients undergoing permanent pacemaker implantation with regard to lesser prevalence of this antigen in the Iranian society compared with European countries and the United States population [5].…”

“…It has been reported that there is an increased cardiovascular mortality in patients with spondyloarthropathies [4]. In fact the first reported case of cardiac involvement in spondyloarthropathy already appeared in 1936 [5,6].…”

“…In fact the first reported case of cardiac involvement in spondyloarthropathy already appeared in 1936 [5,6]. Aortic root involvement is echocardiographically detectable in 61 % of patients with ankylosing spondylitis [4,7,8] presenting echocardiograpically as thickening of the posterior aortic wall with occasional aortic root dilation [4,7,8]. Aortic regurgitation is a known complication of HLA-B27 spondyloarthropathy as a result of cusp thickening and aortic root dilation [4,9].…”
