title: [Septic pseudopodagra by Streptococcus agalactiae].
abstract: Pseudopodagra is an unusual cause of first metatarsophalangeal arthritis. There are multiple causes, and an infectious cause always has to be excluded. We report a septic pseudopodagra by Streptococcus agalactiae in a patient with chronic hepatopathy with an indolent evolution and a consequent delay in diagnosis. Antibiotic treatment was installed with a favourable outcome without functional sequelae. The pseudopodagra reports in the bibliography are reviewed with special attention on those of infectious aetiology.
