  • Title: Churg-Strauss syndrome with nongiant cell eosinophilic temporal arteritis.
    Author: Lie JT, Nagpal S.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1994 Feb; 21(2):366-7. PubMed ID: 8182654.
    Abstract:
    The classic (giant cell) temporal arteritis occasionally coexists with other systemic vasculitides or one of the connective tissue diseases, and occasionally, necrotizing vasculitis has been diagnosed serendipitously in temporal artery biopsies. The association of the classic (giant cell) temporal arteritis with Churg-Strauss syndrome in the same patient occurs only rarely. Involvement of the temporal arteries by nongiant cell eosinophilic vasculitis in Churg-Strauss syndrome, to our knowledge, has not been documented, and we describe one such unusual case.
