title: [Muscular involvement in adult Still's disease. Apropos of 5 new cases].
abstract: Still disease was first described in adults ten years ago. Muscular involvement was already mentioned in the first reports. However, it's incidence is underestimated as it is often mistaken for arthralgia. Diagnosis of muscular involvement is suggested by clinical features and established by biological, electromyographical, and histological investigations. We describe five new cases of adult-onset Still disease with muscular involvement. All five cases followed the usual favorable course.
