Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (formerly called polyarticular-onset juvenile rheumatoid arthritis [RA]) is a subset of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) that is defined by the presence of more than four affected joints during the first six months of illness. Polyarticular JIA is an autoimmune disease. This means that the body's immune system, which normally attacks germs, mistakenly attacks the joints. This causes inflammation (swelling and irritation) in the joints and other problems. Polyarticular JIA usually starts when kids are 1–3 years old, or 10–14 years old.
