IN A STUDY of 107 patients with chorea (Sydenham), one of us (B. M. K.) and Mirman 1 observed that chorea with an increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate was in most instances associated with active rheumatic fever. Patients who (in the absence of cardiac failure) had a normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate during the early part of their chorea had no

Sydenham’s chorea (SC) is a delayed complication of certain Aβ-hemolytic streptococcal infections and serves as a major criterion for the diagnosis of acute rheumatic fever. SC is characterized by chorea, muscle weakness, and a number of neuropsychiatric symptoms. It is an antibody-mediated disorder in which patients produce antibodies that cross-react
