[Role and aspects of lymphography in juvenile chronic polyarthritis]

The authors report two cases of Still's disease with unusual presentation, characterized by important paraaortic lymphatic nodes. The findings of the lymphography could not distinguish between Hodgkin's disease, lymphoma, or inflammatory hyperplasia. Lymphography is usually of little interest for the diagnostic of Still's disease. However the knowledge of such misleading aspects is important when unusual clinical manifestations lead to perform a lymphography.
