Abstract

Adult-onset Still s disease is a rare inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology. Its main features are high fever, rash, polyarthralgia, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, leukocytosis and elevated liver enzymes, high erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and ferritin. High levels of ferritin are commonly observed in Adult onset Still s Disease, but ferritin levels were found to be normal in our patient. We diagnosed iron deficiency anemia as a result of further evaluation. For this reason, we thought ferritin levels were normal. We presented this case because of its rarity in the literature.

Özet

Erişkin Still Hastalığı, etiyolojisi bilinmeyen nadir bir enflamatuvar hastalıktır. Başlıca özellikleri yüksek ateş, döküntü, poliartralji, lenfadenopati, hepatosplenomegali, lökositoz ve karaciğer enzim yüksekliği, yüksek eritrosit sedimantasyon hızı ve ferritindir. Tanı diğer etiyolojiler ekarte edilerek konulur. Erişkin Still hastalığında ferritin düzeyi yüksektir. Fakat olgumuzda ferritin düzeyinin normal sınırlardadır. Yapılan ek incelemelerde beraberinde derin demir eksikliği anemisi saptandı. Bu nedenle ferritin düzeyinin normal olduğunu düşünüldü. Literatürde nadir olması nedeniyle bu olguyu sunduk.
