Spondiloartropatinin bir türü olan ankilozan spondilit (AS), esas olarak aksiyel iskelet, sakroiliak eklem, tendonlar ve bağlar gibi yumuşak dokuları etkileyebilen enflamasyonla karakterize otoimmün bir hastalıktır. AS tedavisinin amaçları omurga esnekliğini geri kazandırmak, postürü iyileştirmek, semptomları hafifletmek, fonksiyonel kısıtlamaları önlemek ve komplikasyonları azaltmaktır. Farmakolojik tedavi basamaklarında, non-steroid anti-enflamatuvar ilaçlarla tedaviye rağmen yüksek hastalık aktivitesi olan hastaların anti-tümör nekroz faktörü (TNF)-alfa ve interlökin-17 inhibitörlerini içeren biyolojik ajanlarla tedavi edilmesi önerilmektedir. Biyolojik ajanlarla tedavi edilen olgularda ciddi enfeksiyon riski göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Kronik hepatit B enfeksiyonu olan hastalarda uygun antiviral profilaksi olmadan verilen anti-TNF-alfa ajanlarının viral reaktivasyonu indüklediği gösterilmiştir. Bu nedenle, antiviral tedavi ile birlikte kullanılmaları önerilmektedir. Ancak literatürde antiviral profilaksiye rağmen hepatit reaktivasyonunun görüldüğü nadir vakalar bildirilmiştir. Biz de anti TNF-alfa ajanının profilaktik bir antiviral ilaç ile birlikte kullanılmasına rağmen hepatit-B reaktivasyonu gelişen bir olguyu sunmayı amaçladık.
