Abstract: (50 Views)
Background: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and multiple sclerosis (MS) rarely coexist. Diagnosing and managing these conditions together can be challenging.
Case presentation: The current study reported the case of a 42-year-old man diagnosed with AS who later developed MS during follow-up.
Conclusion: While both AS and MS are autoimmune diseases, experiencing both conditions simultaneously is uncommon. Selecting an effective treatment plan tailored to individuals dealing with both diseases is crucial.
