Abstract

Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis and adult Still's disease are currently considered as a single autoinflammatory disease with inherited polygenic pattern – Still's disease (SD). The emerge of joint clinical guidelines of the European Anti-Rheumatism League (European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology, EULAR) and Pediatric Rheumatology European Society (PreS) outlines a fundamental change in the existing doctrine, designed to eliminate the existing gap between the pediatric and adult services. These guidelines introduce the first consolidated opinion on the diagnosis and management of children and adults with SD. However, issues of reproduction with SD remain extremely poorly covered. Trying to clarify the link between BS and pregnancy, we researched publications indexed in PubMed and eLIBRARY databases for the period of 2010-2024 using the keywords “Still’s disease”, “juvenile idiopathic arthritis”, “pregnancy”, “obstetric complications” and “perinatal outcomes”.

Keywords
