title: Adult Still's disease: a missed diagnosis.
abstract: Adult Still's disease is now a well recognised distinct clinical entity. Two cases of the disorder are presented to illustrate the protean nature of the syndrome. The literature is reviewed with regards to the diagnosis, management and complications of the condition. The need for the physician to be aware of this condition to avoid unnecessary investigations and delay in instituting effective therapy will be stressed.
