Adult onset Still’s disease in pregnancy (AOSD) is a rarely made diagnosis- in this case it emerged from a presentation complicated by Chlamydia
pneumoniae and did a fair job in mimicking a much more common obstetric syndrome of HELLP (Haemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes, Low platelets)
syndrome. Case reports have associated pregnancy, Chlamydia infection and AOSD, but both in combination together with thrombocytopenia appear to
be unique to the literature.
