Arthritis involving two to four joints is commonly encountered in clinical practice and is termed as oligoarthritis. The profile of oligoarticular arthritis is less explored as compared to polyarthritis. Etiology of oligoarthritis ranges from infectious to non-infectious causes. The present study was done to explore the epidemiological profile of oligoarticular arthritis and identify the demographic, clinical and etiological factors which could help in the differentiation of infectious from non-infectious arthritis. It included 30 subjects with oligoarticular inflammatory arthritis who visited a tertiary care center of north India during Sept.2019 to Sept.2020. Standard diagnostic criteria were used for making diagnosis of arthritis in the subjects and the arthritis was categorized into infectious and non-infectious groups. The study design is a cross sectional, observational study. We found that maximum cases accounting to 20.0% had axial spondyloarthritis and the minimum being 3.3% were each with TB of hip joint and gout. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis accounted for 16.7%. Peripheral spondyloarthritis, RA and ReA, each of the three accounted for 13.3% of the cases and 10% subjects with SLE presented as oligoarthritis. The cases with septic arthritis constituted 6.7% of the whole chunk.
