Abstract

We report a rare occurrence of primary meningococcal polyarthritis in a 19-year-old man. The fluid in the elbow joint showed Gram-negative diplococci but the culture was sterile. The diagnosis was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction targeting crgA gene of Neisseria meningitidis. Copyright 2011, NMJI.
