  • Title: Poststreptococcal reactive arthritis: a form of acute rheumatic fever in adulthood.
    Author: Verschuren F, Hainaut P, Delhaye L, Rodzynek JJ.
    Journal: Acta Clin Belg; 1995; 50(1):28-30. PubMed ID: 7725836.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a middle-aged woman suffering from a relapsing sterile inflammatory arthritis preceded by a streptococcal infection. This observation suggests that streptococcal infection may need to be included in the list of infections known to precipitate reactive arthritis. The clinical presentation of poststreptococcal arthritis in adulthood and its relationship to acute rheumatic fever is discussed.
