Een man met polyartralgie

A 46-year old Ghanaian man presented with immobilizing arthralgias in all joints except the forefoot, with a periarticular swelling most pronounced around the wrists and ankles. He had erythema nodosum and hilar lymphadenopathy on chest radiograph. We diagnosed Löfgren syndrome. The polyarthralgia recovered quickly with prednisone treatment.
