Reiter's syndrome is an often overlooked and misdiagnosed complex of symptoms. Patients may not present with the classic triad of symptoms, or they may forget to mention other pertinent manifestations. How can you make an accurate diagnosis? And what is an effective approach to management? Dr Kirchner reviews studies on the epidemiology, causes, and pathogenesis of the syndrome and discusses key factors in clinical evaluation and treatment.
