Necrotizing lymphadenitis (Kikuchi's disease) is recognized as one of the benign lymphadenopathies. Previously, this condition has not been described in Still's disease which is frequently associated with lymphadenopathy. We report 3 cases of Still's disease, 2 in adults and 1 in an older child, with the findings of necrotizing lymphadenitis on lymph node biopsy. Considering the common infectious and/or immunologic etiologies described in both disorders, coexistence of both conditions suggests the possibility that they share a common etiology.
坏死性淋巴结炎（菊池病）被认为是良性淋巴结病之一。此前，在常伴有淋巴结病的斯蒂尔病中尚未描述过这种情况。我们报告3例斯蒂尔病病例，其中2例为成人，1例为大龄儿童，淋巴结活检结果显示有坏死性淋巴结炎。鉴于这两种疾病中常见的感染性和/或免疫性病因，两种情况并存提示它们可能有共同病因。
