Adult-onset Still's disease with an associated severe restrictive pulmonary defect: a case report.
A 21-year-old black female with an 18-month history of adult Still's disease developed symptoms and objective findings of restrictive lung disease. The pulmonary function abnormalities persisted unchanged for an additional 18 months despite moderate doses of prednisone. This complication has not been previously described in association with adult Still's disease.
