Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is an obscure disease that is usually diagnosed after the exclusion of other febrile diseases, including other autoimmune, infectious, and malignant diseases. Although definitive diagnostic criteria and treatment guidelines for AOSD are thus far lacking, the typical manifestations of AOSD have been identified and effective medications for remission and maintenance have been proposed. The pathophysiology of the AOSD is unclear, but diagnostic criteria and treatment guidelines for AOSD can be established by determining its core etiology and conducting clinical trials of previously tested immunosuppressants and biologics.

<p class="abstract"><span lang="EN-IN">Adult Still’s disease (ASD) is a systemic inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology, typically characterized by a clinical triad of daily spiking high fevers, evanescent rash, and arthritis. This report described a 26-year-old male who presented with these symptoms along with raised liver enzymes and hyperferritinemia. After ruling out systemic infections, localized infections, malignancies and other rheumatological diseases, Adult onset Still’s disease diagnosis was made according to Yamaguchi criteria (having 4 major features and 3 minor features). AOSD is a heterogeneous and rare disease and the lack of serologic markers as a true gold standard makes diagnosis difficult.</span></p>
