Abstract

OBJECTIVE: We report a hypogammaglobulinemic patient with a destructive oligoarticular arthritis, whose synovial fluid cultures were repeatedly sterile. METHODS AND
RESULTS: We identified a Ureaplasma urealyticum infection in his affected joints, using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay.
CONCLUSION: The PCR technique promises to be extremely valuable in the rapid and specific diagnosis of infectious arthritis.
