Fiebre persistente en paciente con enfermedad de Crohn: enfermedad de Still del adulto

Extra-intestinal manifestations are frequent in Crohn's disease (CD). Adult onset Still's disease is a rare disease presenting with arthritis and arthralgia, high ( > 39 °C) and persistent fever, rash, sore throat, lymphadenopathies and hepatosplenomegaly. There are only 3 cases in literature of adult onset Still's disease presenting in CD patients. We describe a new case of adult onset Still's disease associated to connective tissue disease. Although infrequent, it is important to become aware of this disease for the differential diagnosis of arthralgia and high fever in CD patients.
