Arthritis related to rubella: a complication of natural rubella and rubella immunization.
The success of the childhood rubella immunization program has caused an upward shift in age of those susceptible to rubella. An associated increase has taken place in the incidence of rubella-related arthritis, which occurs more often in the post-pubertal population. Fortunately, however, the arthralgia-arthritis syndromes of naturally acquired rubella and those associated with vaccination are usually transient and mild.
