Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare auto-inflammatory disorder with unknown pathophysiology. Although having a heterogeneous clinical spectrum, the major features of AOSD include fever, rash, and arthritis or arthralgia. Neurological involvement is rare in AOSD with aseptic meningitis being the most common presentation. Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) has never been reported as an early presentation of AOSD. Herein, we describe the case of a patient presenting with GBS and fever of unknown origin who was soon diagnosed with AOSD and improved with corticosteroid therapy.
成人斯蒂尔病(AOSD)是一种罕见的自身炎症性疾病,其病理生理学尚不清楚。尽管AOSD具有异质性临床谱,但主要特征包括发热、皮疹和关节炎或关节痛。神经系统受累在AOSD中罕见,无菌性脑膜炎是最常见的表现。格林-巴利综合征(GBS)从未被报道为AOSD的早期表现。在此,我们描述了一例以GBS和不明原因发热为表现的患者,该患者很快被诊断为AOSD,并通过皮质类固醇治疗后病情好转。
