Abstract
We describe a patient with fulminant adult onset Still's disease and multiple organ involvement. The acute flare persisted despite high doses of prednisone but responded to megadose intravenous pulse methylprednisolone therapy. This treatment modality may be useful in temporizing severe multisystem exacerbations of adult Still's disease.
