Miopericarditis aguda como manifestación primaria de artritis reactiva urogenital por Staphylococcus haemolyticus resistente a meticilina

摘要

Reactive arthritis describes the relationship between the host and the environment. This leads to urogenital or gastrointestinal infections. It clinically presents with inflammatory lumbosacral pain, asymmetric oligoarthritis and enthesitis of the Achilles tendon and plantar fascia. Among the extra-articular manifestations are acute anterior uveitis, skin lesions, genital lesions, and oral ulcers, with the rarest being cardiovascular. A case is presented of a patient with a urogenital infection and cardiovascular manifestations, interpreted and managed as acute coronary syndrome. After further studies an acute myopericarditis was considered as a primary manifestation of reactive arthritis.
