The article focuses on a case report describing a 12-year-old Japanese boy who initially presented with cellulitis-like erythema after a soccer injury and was later diagnosed with Crohn's disease, with erythema nodosum (EN). Topics discussed include the challenges of differentiating EN from cellulitis based on skin appearance and MRI findings, and the importance of considering EN as an extraintestinal manifestation (EIM) of Crohn's disease.

Abstract

Reactive arthritis after Group A streptococcal infection (poststreptococcal reactive arthritis: PSRA) that does not meet the Jones criteria for acute rheumatic fever (ARF) has been reported as a new entity for over a decade. In Japan there are few reports of PSRA. We encountered four children with arthritis accompanied with Group A streptococcal infection in our department. We investigated our cases and the recent Japanese literature. Japanese cases of PSRA are frequently accompanied with uveitis and erythema nodosum, and tonsillectomy resolved their symptoms in some cases. There were overlap cases between ARF, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and PSRA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
