Abstract
Reiter's syndrome, also known as reactive arthritis, is composed of the triad of arthritis, urethritis, and conjunctivitis. We herein report the rare case of a male patient with Reiter's syndrome and trismus caused by intravesical BCG immunotherapy. The patient experienced pain of the temporomandibular joint following immunotherapy, and it persisted for 5 months. He was instructed to undergo physiotherapy for mouth opening. After 7 months of treatment, he was able to open his mouth without inconvenience. The management of this case is presented and discussed.
