Trauma and Reiter's syndrome: development of 'reactive arthropathy' in two patients following musculoskeletal injury.

AUTOR(ES)

Wisnieski, J J

RESUMO

Two patients are reported who developed arthropathies with some features of Reiter's syndrome shortly after physical injury. Both were HLA-B27 positive. No other precipitating factors were identified, and the possibility that trauma may have precipitated a reactive arthropathy is discussed.
