Summary: | A history case of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis with early onset and severe clinical case, resistant to treatment with standard immunosuppressive agents is represented in the article. This case demonstrates high clinical efficacy of adalimumab in a patient with severe course of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis, prolonged remission of extra-articular involvement and persistent polyarthritis. By the 4th week of the treatment inflammatory changes in the joints had arrested, range of motions had widened, laboratory markers of activity had normalized and non-active stage of the disease had been established. The duration of the remission of articular syndrome was 2 years, no relapses were observed during the follow-up period. |
