Abstract
Abstract Two important points always must be remembered whenever considering the diagnosis of juvenile arthritis. First, fever and rash should not be present except in children with systemic onset arthritis. If a child with arthritis has fever or a rash, an extensive effort must be made to exclude infectious causes. Fever and rash may be present in Lyme disease, reactive arthritis, and a variety of other diseases that are not juvenile arthritis.
