Данные о частоте, клинической значимости,  эволюции этих проявлений противоречивы.</p><p>Цель исследования – оценить динамику эхокардиографических (ЭхоКГ) изменений аорты и клапанов сердца по результатам проспективного наблюдения больных АС.</p><sec><title>Материал и методы</title><p>Материал и методы. В ФГБНУ НИИР им. В.А. Насоновой с 2008 по 2015 г. наблюдались 45 пациентов (35 мужчин и 10 женщин) с достоверным АС, соответствующим модифицированным Нью-Йоркским критериям, и исходными ЭхоКГ-изменениями аорты и клапанов сердца. Всем пациентам выполнялась трансторакальная ЭхоКГ исходно и через 1–5 лет. Исходно у 15 пациентов имелась дилатация корня аорты &gt;37 мм, у 21 – утолщение стенок аорты, у 32 – утолщение створок аортального клапана (АК), у 15 – утолщение створок митрального клапана (МК), у 5 были протезы клапанов (у 2 – АК и МК). Аортальная регургитация (АР) зарегистрирована у 19 пациентов (у 15 – 1–2-й степени, у четверых – 3–4-й степени), митральная регургитация (МР) 1–2-й степени – у 20 больных. У 10 было субаортальное гребневидное утолщение (СГУ) в зоне аортомитрального соединения. Из 45 пациентов 16 получали генно-инженерные биологические препараты (ГИБП), 29 – традиционную терапию, в том числе 14 – нестероидные противовоспалительные препараты (НПВП), 11 – сульфасалазин, 4 – метотрексат.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты и обсуждение</title><p>Результаты и обсуждение. При повторном исследовании отрицательная динамика выявлена у 27 из 45 больных (60%). Нарастание дилатации аорты (от 1 до 6 мм) выявлено у 12 из 15 человек (80%), у двоих наблюдалось появление дилатации. У 14 отмечена отрицательная динамика со стороны клапанов: появление утолщения створок клапанов (у 9 – АК, у 4 – МК, у одного – АК и МК). Четырем пациентам выполнено протезирование клапанов: трем – АК, одному – МК. Прогрессирование АР отмечено у 10 из 19 пациентов, у 2 (10,5%) – на две степени, у 8 (42,0%) – на одну степень. Прогрессирование МР на одну степень отмечено у 6 из 20 человек (30,0%). Выявлена отрицательная корреляция между терапией ГИБП и прогрессированием дилатации аорты (r=-0,329; p=0,03). У трех пациентов появилось СГУ. Из 10 пациентов, имевших СГУ исходно, его уменьшение отмечено у одного (с 8 до 3,5 мм), полная регрессия – у двоих; все получали ГИБП. Таким образом, патологические изменения аорты и клапанов сердца при АС прогрессируют у большинства пациентов. СГУ может регрессировать, что отражает, по-видимому, уменьшение выраженности активного воспаления корня аорты. Активное противовоспалительное лечение может играть протективную роль в прогрессировании дилатации аорты.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Involvement of the aorta and heart valves in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a manifestation of the systemic inflammatory process. Data on the frequency, clinical significance, and evolution of these manifestations are controversial.</p><sec><title>Objective</title><p>Objective: to estimate the time course of echocardiographic (EchoCG) changes in the aorta and heart valves from the results of a prospective follow-up study of patients with AS.</p></sec><sec><title>Subjects and methods</title><p>Subjects and methods. In 2008 to 2015, the V.A. Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology followed up 45 patients (35 men and 10 women) with documented AS that was consistent with the modified New York criteria and the original EchoCG changes in the aorta and heart valves. All the patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography at baseline and after 1–5 years. At baseline, there was aortic root dilatation (&gt;37 mm) in 15 patients, thickening of the aortic walls and aortic valve (AV) cusps in 21 and 32 patients, respectively, as well as thickening of the mitral valve (MV) cusps in 15, and valve prostheses in 5 patients (2 had AV and MV prostheses). Aortic regurgitation (AR) was recorded in 19 patients (grades 1–2 AR in 15 patients and grades 3–4 in 4 patients); grades 1–2 mitral regurgitation (MR) was seen in 20 patients. Ten patients had subaortic pectinate thickening (SPT) in the aortomitral junction area. Of the 45 patients, 16 took biological agents (BA); 29 received traditional therapy, including 14 patients who used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, 11 and 4 patients had sulfasalazine and methotrexate, respectively.</p></sec><sec><title>Results and discussion</title><p>Results and discussion.Repeated examinations revealed negative changes in 27 (60%) of the 45 patients. Progressive aortic dilatation (1 to 6 mm) was found in 12 (80%) of the 15 patients; dilatation appeared during follow-up in 2 patients. Fourteen patients were noted to have negative valve changes: the emergence of cusp thickening in the valves (that in AV and MV in 9 and 4 patients, respectively; both in 1 patient). Four patients underwent valve replacement: 3 and 1 patients underwent AV and MV replacements, respectively. Ten of the 19 patients were observed to have AR progression by 2 grades in 2 (10.5%) patients and by one grade in 8 (42.0%) patients. MR progression by one grade was noted in 6 (30.0%) of the 20 people. A negative correlation was found between BA therapy and aortic dilation progression (r = -0.329; p = 0.03). SPT appeared in 3 patients. Of the 10 patients who had a baseline SPT, its reduction (8 to 3.5 mm) was seen in one patient; complete regression was identified in two patients; all received BAs. Thus, pathological changes in the aorta and heart valves in AS are progressive in most patients. SPT may regress, which reflects apparently a reduction in the severity of active inflammation of the aortic root. Active anti-inflammatory treatment may play a protective role in the progression of aortic dilatation.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>анкилозирующий спондилит</kwd><kwd>патология аорты и клапанов сердца</kwd><kwd>генно-инженерные биологические препараты</kwd><kwd>замена клапана</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>ankylosing spondylitis</kwd><kwd>valvular heart disease</kwd><kwd>biological agents</kwd><kwd>valve replacement.</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Bergfeldt L.
