On admission to the hospital the patient was in a generally good state, without any abnormalities on physical examination. &lt;br \/&gt;\nLaboratory investigation revealed elevated inflammatory markers. Diagnostic imaging comprising chest X-ray, abdominal ultrasonography, and echocardiography showed no abnormalities. During the hospitalization, there occurred episodes of fever with skin rash and musculoskeletal pain of the lower limbs. Procalcitonin concentrations continued to increase. C-reactive protein concentrations decreased during therapy, starting from 191 mg\/l. On the 23rd day of the disease, edema of the feet, ankles, and knees appeared. &lt;br \/&gt;\nOn the basis of the clinical picture and after excluding other possible causes of fever, the patient was diagnosed with adult onset Still\u2019s disease. The procalcitonin concentration was normalized after 5 days of steroid therapy. The patient was discharged under ambulatory rheumatologic supervision.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5114\/reum.2016.62476","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,10,28]],"date-time":"2016-10-28T10:05:03Z","timestamp":1477649103000},"page":"207-211","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Limited diagnostic value of procalcitonin in early diagnosis of adult onset Still\u2019s disease"],"prefix":"10.5114","volume":"54","author":[{"given":"Ewelina","family":"Gowin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jacek","family":"Wysocki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3061","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,10,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref-797217","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Gaeta GB, Fusco FM, Nardiello S.
