Neutrophilic urticarial dermatosis is a distinct entity strongly associated with underlying autoinflammatory disease. The pathogenesis of this condition has been considered to center around interleukin-1. We report a young woman with neutrophilic urticarial dermatosis who presented with a recurrent urticarial rash for two years prior to the onset of other systemic features including persistent fevers, sore throat, leukocytosis, elevated ferritin, and splenomegaly. She was ultimately diagnosed with adult-onset Still disease and responded well to treatment with systemic corticosteroids. Although neutrophilic urticarial dermatosis is known to occur in the setting of systemic symptoms and disease, its occurrence preceding the onset of systemic inflammation is less well-described in current literature.
