ABSTRACT
Poncet’s disease is a rarely reported aseptic reactive polyarthritis associated to active
pulmonary or extrapulmonary infection caused by
Mycobacterium tuberculosis. There
are no more than 200 cases reported in the literature and still remains as a diagnosis of
exclusion with unknown pathogenesis. It quickly and remarkably resolves with antituberculous
drugs, has usually a good prognosis and does not turn into chronic arthritis.
This article reviews the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis,
treatment options and prognosis of Poncet’s disease.
