Yersinia enterocolitica is an uncommon cause of infectious diarrhea in the United States. Rarely, it is a cause of extraintestinal disease. Yet an association exists between Y. enterocolitica infection and axial arthropathy. We present a patient with long-standing arthritis, consistent with incomplete Reiter's syndrome, who developed Y. enterocolitica colitis with hepatic and pulmonic infection.
