He was diagnosed with tonsillitis-related arthritis after other rheumatic diseases were ruled out. Treatment with salazosulfapyridine, methotrexate, and methylprednisolone for 3 months did not completely improve. Then, tonsillectomy was undertaken and arthritis rapidly improved. Finegoldia magna (previously Peptostreptococcus magnus) was cultured from the microabscesses of the resected tonsils. After outpatient follow-up, the patient did not experience a relapse of arthritis for more than 2.7 years without any treatment. Poststreptococcal reactive arthritis (PSRA) is well described. However, up to 40% of patients with tonsillitis-related arthritis did not demonstrate evidence of streptococcal infection. It is noted that tonsillectomy is necessary to remove the tonsillar microabscesses and eradicate bacterial infection of the tonsils, especially for patients with a prolonged and\/or recurrent course of PSRA and\/or tonsillitis-related arthritis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2021\/2983267","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,23]],"date-time":"2021-12-23T20:05:19Z","timestamp":1640289919000},"page":"1-4","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Tonsillitis-Related Arthritis: Advanced Understandings of Tonsillitis and Sterile Inflammatory Arthritis"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2021","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1939-3380","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Shigeto","family":"Kobayashi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine and Rheumatology, Juntendo University Koshigaya Hospital, Koshigaya, Saitama 343-0032, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Issei","family":"Kida","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine and Rheumatology, Juntendo University Koshigaya Hospital, Koshigaya, Saitama 343-0032, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yuuki","family":"Makiyama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology, Yokohama City Minato Red Cross Hospital, Yokohama, Kanagawa 231-8682, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshinori","family":"Taniguchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrinology, Metabolism,Nephrology and Rheumatology, Kochi Medical School Hospital, Kochi University, Nankoku, Kochi 783-8505, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kurisu","family":"Tada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine and Rheumatology, Juntendo University School of Medicine, Tokyo 13-8421, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naoto","family":"Tamura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine and Rheumatology, Juntendo University School of Medicine, Tokyo 13-8421, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.idc.2017.01.002"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/rhe1.1969.15.issue-1-4.32"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/ard.52.6.475"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/ard.48.8.686"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1546-0096-9-32"},{"key":"6","article-title":"Post-streptococcal reactive arthritis: where are we now","volume":"2016","author":"H.
