[Polyarteritis nodosa in a woman with temporal arteritis].
A case of a 74-year-old woman, with a histological diagnosis of Transient Arteritis two years before and Nodose Polyarteritis, is described. Although the coexistance of these two vasculitis in a same patient has been rarely described in the literature, we considered that the diagnostic suscpiction of Nodose Polyarteritis should be maintained in a patient with Transient Arteritis developing multisystemic signs.
