RESUMEN
Dentro del grupo de las espondiloartritis, la artritis reactiva se define como una inflamación articular desencadenada por una infección bacteriana extra-articular. Existen pocos reportes de artritis reactiva asociada con bacteriemia simultánea causada por patógenos diversos. Brevundimonas diminuta es un bacilo Gram negativo aislado ocasionalmente de especímenes clínicos. Reportamos el caso de una paciente, sin inmunodeficiencia conocida, con artritis reactiva y bacteriemia simultánea por B. diminuta.Palabras clave artritis reactiva, Brevundimonas diminuta, bacteriemia.
