title: Adult septic arthritis with Hemophilus influenzae.
abstract: Two cases of Hemophilus influenzae septic arthritis are reported, one in a rheumatoid patient and the other in a healthy young woman after meningitis. The evolution of this rare infectious arthritis was not as good as usual in spite of early therapy. The first patient later presented a Staphylococcus albus bacteriemia and the other a post-infectious persisting arthritis.
