The typical skin rash of AOSD is evanescent, erythematous maculopapular lesions. We report here on a rare case of AOSD in a 29-year-old female patient who presented with high fever, erythma multiforme-like skin eruption, arthritis and sore throat. She was diagnosed with AOSD according to the diagnostic criteria of Yamaguchi.
