[Still's disease. Review of the literature and considerations on a case]

Following an extensive review of all the most recent literature on primary chronic rheumatism in infants or the young, a personal case of Still's disease is reported. Special attention is paid to the good results obtained associating an antitubercular therapy, even though no clinical or laboratory findings suggest any specific tubercular condition: no definitive conclusions are reached but an aspect of the problem which is undoubtedly worth further study is stressed.
