What is Pathophysiology of Rheumatic Fever about?

Rheumatic fever is an inflammatory condition that arises as a complication of streptococcal pharyngitis, primarily affecting children aged 5-15. It can lead to serious cardiac issues, including rheumatic heart disease, and is characterized by symptoms such as polyarthritis, skin lesions, and neurological manifestations. Diagnosis is based on the Jones criteria, which require evidence of a post-streptococcal infection along with specific clinical signs.
