is a rare pathogen for septic arthritis and is known for its subacute onset. We report a case of acute arthritis of the knee caused by and pseudogout. Initially, calcium pyrophosphate crystals were found in the knee, which were successfully treated with a steroid injection. Only anaerobic cultures became positive. A 16S rRNA PCR-analysis was necessary to identify as causative agent, a method which is never described before in similar cases. The infection was treated with clindamycin for 6 weeks. This is the third case report of a septic arthritis caused by and the second which also reports concomitant pseudogout.
是化脓性关节炎的一种罕见病原体,以亚急性起病而闻名。我们报告一例由和假性痛风引起的急性膝关节炎病例。最初,在膝关节发现了焦磷酸钙晶体,通过类固醇注射成功治疗。只有厌氧菌培养呈阳性。需要进行16S rRNA聚合酶链反应分析来鉴定为病原体,这是一种在类似病例中从未描述过的方法。感染用克林霉素治疗6周。这是第三例由引起的化脓性关节炎病例报告,也是第二例同时报告伴有假性痛风的病例。
