Summary:The problem of comorbidity is widely discussed in modern medical literature. Its role in rheumatic diseases is of particular interest due to their multifactorial nature and the involvement of a wide range of pathogenetic mechanisms. For many years, researchers around the world have noted correlations between the presence of active autoimmune disorders and the complicated course of cardiovascular diseases. A deeper understanding of the pathogenetic mechanisms at the present stage of development of rheumatology allows us to take a fresh look at the relationship between atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. The definition of multimorbidity developed in recent years and the results of recent scientific studies may contribute to a more correct choice of tactics for managing patients with a combination of these two diseases.
