    Journal: Intern Med J; 2014 Dec; 44(12a):1247-51. PubMed ID: 25442760.
    Abstract:
    Postvenereal reactive arthritis is an inflammatory form of arthritis that commonly develops after urogenital infection, predominantly in human leucocyte antigen-B27-positive men in the third decade of life. In our hospital, patients underwent synovectomy before a 4-month course of antibiotics (ciprofloxacin, tetracycline and roxithromicin). The clinical remission was achieved in approximately 70% patients. At molecular level, the remission was associated with the negative polymerase chain reaction findings of bacteria.
