    Author: Atkinson MH, McLeod BD.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1988 Mar; 15(3):520-2. PubMed ID: 3259987.
    Abstract:
    Reactive arthritis of one or more peripheral joints developed after an enteric infection with Clostridium difficile in 2 adult patients. Other reactive signs such as conjunctivitis, mucous membrane lesions and urethritis were absent. One patient had the HLA-B27 antigen. Short term followup showed a benign course of the arthritis. Three other cases of arthritis associated with C. difficile were reviewed.
