Abstract

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis is the most frequent rheumatic disease and one of the most common chronic diseases in childhood. In Angola, there are no reviews reported of this systemic onset disease, and only few publications have been reported on the African continent, in countries such as Egypt and South Africa. The objective of this work is to inform on a case of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis in a two-years-old patient who presented symptoms such as polyarthritis, evanescent erythema, lymphadenopathies, prolonged fever and visceromegaly. This is the first case of juvenile idiopathic arthritis reported in that country.
