“…Seven of the 9 patients with salmonella arthritis had complete or incomplete Reiter's syndrome, as has been observed previously in some cases (2)(3)(4)(38)(39)(40). Thus, extraarticular complications seem to be common in arthritis associated with salmonella infections.…”

An analysis of 160 patients with Reiter's disease, 144 with yersinia arthritis, and 9 with salmonella arthritis was performed. Complete or incomplete Reiter's syndrome was observed in one‐third of the patients with yersinia arthritis and in most of those with salmonella arthritis. During the followup period, chronic back pain and joint symptoms were frequent in all the patient groups. Patients who were HLA—B27 positive had a more severe acute disease (more frequent back pain, urologic symptoms, mucocutaneous manifestations, and a longer duration of the disease) and more frequent chronic back pain and sacroiliitis.

“…Thus, the plasmid encoded an epitope shared with HLA B27 and the results therefore strongly suggested that molecular mimicry may play a role in the induction of reactive arthritis following enteric Shigella infection. The incidence rate of arthritis following enteric infection with Salmonella varies be tween 1.6 and 7.3% [96,[103][104][105], However, this is contrasted by the study of Woodrow [69] which did not disclose one single case of arthritis among 2.100 young adults with sal monellosis. Of individuals exposed to Salmo nella infection, slightly less than a third will develop enteritis [96].…”

This review addresses the clinical picture of rheumatic diseases seen in Whipple’s disease, gluten-sensitive enteropathy, pseudomembranous colitis, collagenous colitis and that developing after enteric infections and intestinal bypass operations for morbid obesity. These disorders examplify the interplay between antigen entrance through the gastrointestinal canal, specific bacterial properties and genetic host factors such as HLA B27. In most cases such an interplay results in formation of circulating immune complexes causing the development of peripheral joint disease.

“…Hemophilus infuenzae infectious arthritis is more common in young children, but it also occurs in adults (15). Salmonella infections have been reported less frequently (18). Intravenous drug abusers have a special predilection for Gram-negative infections with a high incidence of involvement of the sternoclavicular joint (8,9,12,13).…”

A retrospective analysis of 71 nongonococcal joint infections in 63 patients in reported. Staphylococcus aureus was isolated from 59% of the patients. Five patients died as a result of infections. The outcome in Gram‐n egative joint infections was similar to the overall outcome in the entire series of patients. All 11 joints with infected prostheses ultimately required removal of the prostheses. All patients were treated with appropriate parenteral antibiotics, and surgical intervention was used in 40 joints. Six patients underwent surgical treatment because of inability to sterilize the joint with antibiotics and because of repeated joint aspirations. The outcome with surgical intervention was good only in patients younger than 16 years of age. Medical therapy (parenteral antibiotics and frequent joint aspirations) led to good results in 74% of the patients. Outcome of joint infection was also influenced by factors which contribute to imparied host resistance.
