Dr Madhuri Janbandhu, Dr Arun Janbandhu

Abstract :

 Reiter syndrome is a systemic disorder, originally defined as a triad of arthritis, urethritis and conjunctivitis. This symptoms complex usually follows an episode of either urethritis or dysentery. Skin and mucosal involvement is observed in about 10% of the cases. We present a case of Reiter’s syndrome in a 22 year young man who developed the Polyarticular joint involvement(both knees, left ankle and both elbow ) along with keratitis and urethritis. Patient has history of dysentery 3 weeks prior to joint involvement.We are presenting this case because classical presentation is very rare.
