title: [The clinical characteristics of patients with Reiter's disease].
abstract: The authors analyze 46 case histories of patients with Reiter's disease. They describe the clinical, bacteriological, serological, and x-ray examinations and the features of the disease course. The majority (97.7%) of patients have developed the disease after casual sexual intercourse. Fifteen patients suffered from an acute disease, in the rest it coursed without manifest general symptoms. The principal and permanent symptom of Reiter's disease is urethritis complicated by prostatitis and vasculitis. The drugs for this disease are listed. The authors necessitate examinations and sanitation of the patients' sexual partners.
