Background: COVID-19 is associated with a postinfectious hyperinflammatory disorder, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), that shares characteristics with still's disease, known as systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) in children younger than 16, and adult onset Still's disease (AOSD) in children 16 and older. Both MIS-C and SJIA/AOSD can be complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), a potentially fatal condition of cytokine storm.
