Reiter's disease.
Reiter's disease can no longer be considered a rare and relatively benign syndrome consisting of the clinical triad of urethritis, conjunctivitis and arthritis. It is, in fact, a post-infectious reactive arthritis that belongs to a new group of diseases now called seronegative spondyloarthropathies. These diseases are characterized by an extremely high association with the genetic marker, human leukocyte antigen B27. In its full course, the disease often is incomplete with its initial clinical manifestations and characterized by chronicity and progressive crippling recurrences.
