Erythroderma in Adult-Onset Still's Disease Alleviated After Tocilizumab Therapy: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT

Erythroderma, also known as exfoliative dermatitis, is a rarely reported atypical cutaneous manifestation of adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD). We present the case of erythroderma in association with AOSD that was steroid dependent and responded to tocilizumab therapy. Skin rash, pruritis, and related laboratory findings were significantly improved upon the addition of tocilizumab, while prednisolone was successfully tapered to an ever-lowest maintenance level. To our knowledge, this is the first to report the sole therapeutic effect of tocilizumab in erythroderma related to AOSD.
