The authors emphasize that urogenous arthritides (UA) be distinguished among other inflammatory diseases of the joints. They analyze 51 case histories of UA patients; these cases have made up 9.5% of the total number of patients with articular inflammations. UA are characterized by an early onset, by a relationship between the articular syndrome and the urologic infection, an asymmetric pattern of articular involvement (mainly in the lower limbs), and by a dependence of the therapeutic effect on the urogenital condition (i.e. arthritides can be cured only if the urologic disease is cured). Chlamydial infection is the most frequent (71%) reason of UA. Cooperation of a venereologist and rheumatologist in the detection and rational therapy of UA patients provides clinical cure or a considerable reduction of the number of relapses.
