abstract: A case report is given of a patient with intestinal nodular lymphoid hyperplasia, hypoimmunoglobulinemia and seronegative rheumatoid arthritis with extensive deformation of joints, who was diagnosed and followed for 10 years clinically and by repeated endoscopic and bioptic examinations. It could be shown for the first time by temporary omission of corticosteroids that continuous therapy with corticosteroids is indispensable in this disease.
