A case of adult onset Still's disease presenting with fever and a rash.

Adult onset Still's disease is a rare condition presenting with high spiking fever, transient maculopapular rash, myalgias, polyarthralgias or arthritis, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly and a sore throat, associated with leucocytosis and neutrophilia. Early diagnosis is difficult because clinical features are non-specific. We report a 33-year-old Chinese female with this condition who presented with recurrent high spiking fever and rash over a 4-month period. We highlight the sequence of events leading to this diagnosis with emphasis on the cutaneous changes.
