  • Title: [Coexistence of polymyalgia rheumatica/temporal arteritis and chronic polyarthritis].
    Author: Brückle W, Schattenkirchner M.
    Journal: Z Rheumatol; 1989; 48(1):1-5. PubMed ID: 2652936.
    Abstract:
    Prompted by one of our own case studies, which we report here, we reviewed the literature for coincidence of rheumatoid arteritis (RA) with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and temporal arteritis (TA), respectively. The indicative feature of this uncommon condition was found in 13 cases, whereas in 70 other cases reported, the diagnosis of combined RA and PMR/TA was probable. Diagnostic criteria for determining combined RA and PMR/TA will be discussed, as well as the clinical important feature of senile RA.
