Abstract

Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is an uncommon systemic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology and pathogenesis, characterized by high spiking fever, arthralgia or arthritis, skin rash and other systemic presentation. AOSD, one of the most important causes of fever of unknown origin, is diagnosed after ruling out infection, malignancy, and rheumatologic diseases. This report described a 19-year-old male who presented with, arthritis, fever, sore throat, evanescent rash, raised liver enzyme and hyperferritinemia. He was diagnosed to have AOSD based on Yamaguchi criteria after the exclusion of other potential diagnoses. The patient responded to combined methylprednisolone and methotrexate.
