Summary
The authors describe the case of a 74-year-old patient with polymyalgia rheumatica complicated by bilateral giant cell temporal arteritis with normal C-reactive protein level and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. The treatment with prednisone in initial dose of 60 mg per day and methorexate led to remission and prevented irreversible complications. The authors present an overview of current diagnostics and treatment of giant cell arteritis.
Key words:
