Abstract:
Human Parvovirus B19 (PB19) may cause joint manifestations. We report eight cases of polyarthritis associated with PB19 IgM: six cases of acute polyarthritis spontaneously resolving within a few days, and two other cases suggesting that PB19 should be responsible for accutisation of chronic disease (lupus with Kikuchi's disease and HLA B27 related arthritis).
