We evaluated age, sex, disease duration, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, ankylosed sacroiliac joint, bamboo spine, number of ankylosed vertebrae, and treatment (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, prednisolone, conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, and spine surgery for vertebral fracture) at the final follow-up of the nonsurgical group and the preoperative follow-up of the surgical group.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>At the final follow-up, the mean age was 49\u2009years, 46 patients (75%) were male, and the mean disease duration was 27\u2009years.
