title: Recurrence of adult Still's disease after pregnancy.
abstract: A 35-year-old white woman had recurrent episodes of adult onset Still's disease after 2 successive pregnancies. The second episode was characterized by an erythematous, macular rash, arthritis, fevers and hepatic dysfunction which occurred 2 months postpartum. The recurrent illness after pregnancy suggests that adult onset Still's disease may be influenced by gestational status.
