  • Title: Cogan's syndrome - A rare aortitis, difficult to diagnose but with therapeutic potential.
    Author: Colodetti R, Spina G, Leal T, Oliveira M, Soeiro A.
    Journal: Rev Assoc Med Bras (1992); 2017 Dec; 63(12):1028-1031. PubMed ID: 29489984.
    Abstract:
    The inflammation of aortic wall, named aortitis, is a rare condition that can be caused by a number of pathologies, mainly inflammatory or infectious in nature. In this context, the occurrence of combined audiovestibular and/or ocular manifestations eventually led to the diagnosis of Cogan's syndrome, making it the rare case, but susceptible to adequate immunosuppressive treatment and satisfactory disease control.
