    Author: Imanaka H, Eto S, Takei S, Yoshinaga M, Hokonohara M, Miyata K.
    Journal: Acta Paediatr Jpn; 1995 Jun; 37(3):381-3. PubMed ID: 7645394.
    Abstract:
    We present a rare case of a 10 year old Japanese boy with acute rheumatic fever accompanied with poststreptococcal acute glomerulonephritis. We isolated group A Streptococcus serotype T 12, a strain that was thought to be nephritogenic but not rheumatogenic, from throat culture. Although rare, physicians should be aware that acute renal disease may accompany rheumatic fever.
