Abstract

Disseminated gonococcal infection (DGI) often manifests as gonococcal arthritis and may carry significant morbidity. However, diagnosis remains elusive due to limited sensitivity of available diagnostic tests. We used metagenomic next-generation sequencing to detect Neisseria gonorrhoeae from culture-negative joint aspirates of 2 patients with clinically diagnosed DGI.
