Abstract
Parvovirus B19 causes several well-characterized syndromes, ranging from classic erythema infectiosum, primarily in children, to aplastic crises in patients with problems of red-cell production or immunodeficiencies, and to arthropathies, primarily in adults.1,2 The joint complications that follow parvovirus B19 infections usually occur within a few weeks, and because most parvovirus B19 infections occur in late winter or spring,2,3 most arthropathies due to parvovirus B19 occur around this time.
