Patients with post-venereal Reiter's syndrome, living in the districts of Egedesminde and Jakobshavn in Greenland, were ascertained from medical records and patient examinations. Fifty-one patients were found to have definite Reiter's syndrome according to the ARA proposed criteria. The prevalence of the disease is 1.08% in Egedesminde and 0.34% in Jakobshavn. Annual incidences and prevalences show a marked increase between 1960 and 1983. Retrospective follow-up data on all patients show that the disease recurs in over 85% of cases for which the follow-up period is 10 years or longer.
