Analysis of clinical manifestations of spondyloarthritis in patients with and without the HLA-B*27 were performed, but the results revealed great heterogeneity. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical manifestations of spondyloarthritis according to the classification criteria of the European Study Group Spondyloarthropathy (ESSG) in the presence and absence of the HLA-B*27. Patients and methods: From a total of 156 patients with clinical suspicion referred for the investigation of gene HLA-B*27, 73 were diagnosed with spondyloarthritis according to the criteria of ESSG. The HLA-B*27 were identified using commercial kits (Dynal ReliTM SSO HLA-B Typing Kit, Invitrogen). Clinical data were collected from medical records of patients. The results were compared using the chi-square or Fisher exact test. The values of Odds Ratio (OR) and confidence interval of 95% were also calculated. The p-value equal to or less than 0.05 was considered significant. Results: Of the 73 selected patients, 53 (72.6%) were male and 20 (27.4%) were female. The mean age was 49.4 and did not differ between genders (p = 0337). The spondyloarthritis found among the 73 patients were: ankylosing spondylitis (n = 47; 64.4%), psoriatic spondyloarthritis (n = 9; 12.3%), undifferentiated spondyloarthritis (n = 9; 12.3%), spondyloarthritis enteropathica (n = 6; 8.2%) and reactive arthritis (n = 2; 2.7%). The average age of onset was equal to 39.1 (± 11.7) and did not differ between genders (p = 0.9057). Of the total, 35 (47.9%) patients were HLA-B*27 positive and 38 (52.1%) were negative. This gene was positively associated with ankylosing spondylitis (OR: 5.37, 95% CI: 1813-15905, p = 0.003) and negatively with spondyloarthritis enteropathica (OR: 0.07, 95% CI: 0003-1301, p = 0.025). The sacroiliitis was associated with the presence of the gene (OR: 10 552, 95% CI: 1260-88256, p = 0.014) and intestinal injury absence (OR: 0.195, 95% CI: 0038-0978, p = 0.048). Conclusions: The HLA-B * 27 was associated with ankylosing spondylitis, enteropathic but not to spondyloarthritis. The radiological signs of sacroiliitis prevailed in patients positive for HLA-B*27, while intestinal involvement was associated with the absence of this gene. especially in cases of dystrophic scoliosis. In both cases, studies with larger samples are needed to assess whether these trends are evident. / Introdução: Espondiloartrite é um grupo de doenças com características clínicas, laboratoriais e imagenológicas semelhantes. Análises das manifestações clínicas das espondiloartrites em pacientes com e sem o gene HLA-B*27 foram realizadas, mas os resultados revelaram grande heterogeneidade. Objetivos: O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar as manifestações clínicas das espondiloartrites utilizadas nos critérios de classificação do European Spondyloarthropathy Study Group (ESSG) na presença e na ausência do gene HLA-B*27. Casuística e método: De um total de 156 pacientes com suspeita clínica, encaminhados para investigação do gene HLA-B*27, 73 tiveram diagnóstico de espondiloartrites confirmado, de acordo com os critérios do ESSG. O gene HLA-B*27 foi identificado com o uso de kits comerciais (Dynal ReliTM SSO HLA-B Typing Kit, Invitrogen). Os dados clínicos foram colhidos dos prontuários médicos dos pacientes. Os resultados foram comparados com o uso dos testes Qui-quadrado ou o teste exato de Fisher. Os valores de Odds Ratio (OR) e intervalo de confiança a 95% também foram calculados. O valor p igual ou menor que 0,05 foi considerado significante. Resultados: Dos 73 pacientes selecionados, 53 (72,6%) eram do sexo masculino e 20 (27,4%), femininos. A média de idade foi igual a 49,4 e não diferiu entre os sexos (p=0.337). As espondiloartrites encontradas entre os 73 pacientes foram: espondilite anquilosante (n=47; 64,4%), espondiloartrite psoriásica (n=9; 12,3%), espondiloartrite indiferenciada (n=9; 12,3%), espondiloartrite enteropática (n=6; 8,2%) e artrite reativa (n=2; 2,7%). A média de idade de início dos sintomas foi igual a 39,1 (±11.7) e não diferiu entre os sexos (p=0,9057). Do total, 35 (47.9%) pacientes eram HLA-B*27 positivo e 38 (52.1%), negativos. Este gene foi associado positivamente à espondilite anquilosante (OR: 5.37; IC 95%: 1.813-15.905; p=0.003) e negativamente à espondiloartrite enteropática (OR: 0.07; IC 95%: 0.003-1.301; p=0.025). A sacroiliíte se associou à presença do gene (OR: 10.552; IC 95%: 1.260-88.256; p=0.014) e o comprometimento intestinal à ausência (OR: 0.195; IC 95%: 0.038-0.978; p=0.048). Conclusões: O gene HLA-B*27 foi associado à espondilite anquilosante, mas não à espondiloartrite enteropática. Os sinais radiológicos de sacroiliíte prevaleceram nos pacientes positivos para o gene HLA-B*27, enquanto o comprometimento intestinal foi associado à ausência deste gene.
