Abstract

Poststreptococcal arthritis (PSRA) has been defined as a form of arthritis following streptococcal infection which does not satisfy the Jones criteria. Fever, myalgia, erythema nodosum, erythema multyforme, vasculitis and glomerulonephritis can be observed besides oligoarthritis, which is the chief complaint, in the clinical course. However entesopathy is not a usual finding. A twenty-eight years old man with a history of a streptococcal tonsillitis at the previous week admitted to our clinic with the complaints of left knee, ankle, heel pain and left knee swelling that lasted for 5 days and was diagnosed as PSRA. The medical treatment including procaine penicillin for 10 days (1.600.000 IU per day) and acetylsalicylate (5 gr per day) was administered. We aimed to present this case, who was totally cured after this therapy regime, because of the associated calcaneal enthesopathy during the course of PSRA.

Özet

Streptokok enfeksiyonu sonrası görülen ve Jones kriterlerini tam karşılamayan artritler poststreptokoksik reaktif artrit (PSRA) olarak isimlendirilir. PSRA’nın kliniğinde temel bulgu olan oligoartritin yanı sıra ateş, miyalji, eritema nodosum, eritema multiforme, vaskülit ve glomerulonefrit gözlenebilir. Fakat entezopati PSRA’nın bilinen klinik bulgularından değildir. Öyküsünde bir hafta önce akut streptokoksik tonsillit geçirdiği öğrenilen 28 yaşındaki bir erkek hasta, 5 gündür mevcut olan sol diz, ayak bileği, topuk ağrısı ve sol dizde şişlik şikayeti nedeniyle kliniğimize başvurmuş ve bu bulgularla PSRA tanısı konarak 10 gün prokain penisilin (1.600.000 IU/gün) ve asetilsalisilat (5 gr/gün) tedavisi başlanmıştır. Bu tedavi sonrası tam olarak iyileşen hastada PSRA seyri sırasında kalkaneal entezopati gelişmesi nedeniyle olgumuzu sunmayı amaçladık.
