Abstract
A case of Group G streptococcal arthritis in a previously healthy man is reported. The 2nd and 3rd metatarso-phalangeal joints of the left foot were simultaneously affected. Unusual erosive joint destruction occurred in spite of early therapy and clinical improvement. Circulating immune complexes were raised and were not completely normal at 1 year.Keywords
