Whereas the incidence of HLA-B27 is less than 1 percent in general population, it is present in more than 85% of patients with ankylosing spondylitis.

In Ayurveda, no typical nomenclature has been found for the said disease but considering all sing and symptom of the patients, it can be treated as Asthimajjagata vata.
