Coexistent septic and crystal arthritis. Report of four cases and literature review

P A Baer et al. J Rheumatol. 1986 Jun.

Abstract

The coexistence of acute crystal induced synovitis and septic arthritis is an uncommonly reported occurrence. Twenty-two cases have been reported. Four additional patients are described and possible pathogenic mechanisms discussed. The diagnosis of one of these entities should not preclude a diligent search for the other.
