Introduction: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatism characterized for a long time by a high degree of cardiovascular risk. Chronic inflammation is one of the mechanisms that explain this cardiovascular excess of risk through direct and indirect pathways. In recent years, epidemiological data have changed somewhat since the increasing use of bio-drugs that are effective in reducing this inflammation. The purpose of this review is to assess the current state of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in PsA and thus to assess the cardiovascular risk in case of PsA.
