To the editor: Reactive arthritis (ReA) in tuberculosis (TB) is known as Poncet's disease. It is a rare aseptic form of arthritis observed in patients with active TB. It has been suggested that Poncet's disease mainly occurs in patients with extrapulrnonary TB. We report here a case of Poncet's disease in a patient with retroperitoneal tuberculous lympbadenitis.
