| pubmed-article:2609084 | pubmed:abstractText | The relationship between trauma and reaction arthritis, although controverted must be interpreted in each specific cases, after chronological analysis of the events. The localizing role of a trauma occurring before the infectious episode and affecting, topographically, a specific joint, may be accepted. It is reasonable to admit that a trauma, following an infectious episode, may possibly trigger rheumatism, providing that one of these arthritis corresponds topographically to the trauma. On the contrary, it does not seem possible to accept, in the present state of our knowledge, that an isolated trauma occurring on a genetically predisposed individual, may generate, out of nothing, a Fiessinger-Leroy-Reiter syndrome. | lld:pubmed |
