We report the case of a 38-year-old female patient, affected with Kartagener syndrome (primary ciliary dyskinesia), who developed seropositive and erosive rheumatoid arthritis. According to our review, there are only 6 cases reported so far with this association without a definite etiopathogenic linkage recognized in common. Chronic infections resulting from the ciliary dysfunction might be a trigger for rheumatoid arthritis.
我们报告了一例38岁女性患者的病例，该患者患有卡塔格内综合征（原发性纤毛运动障碍），并发展为血清阳性和侵蚀性类风湿性关节炎。根据我们的综述，迄今为止仅报告了6例这种关联的病例，尚未发现共同认可的明确病因联系。由纤毛功能障碍引起的慢性感染可能是类风湿性关节炎的触发因素。
