摘要：

A 12-year-old girl with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis presented with signs of infection of the proximal interphalangeal joint of her left great toe 1 week after a flu-like illness. Several joints and one bone were subsequently found to be infected with group A beta-hemolytic streptococci. Despite appropriate antibiotic therapy, synovial fluid cultures remained positive for 2 weeks. We believe that the antiinflammatory medications, including etanercept (a tumor necrosis factor antagonist), used to treat this patient's arthritis contributed to the severity and unusual course of her infection.
