title: [Orthostatic hypotension disclosing an autonomic deficit in a case of Horton's temporal arteritis].
abstract: A 68 year-old hypertensive woman carried out, linked with the featuring complaints of temporal arteritis-polymyalgia rheumatica complex, an orthostatic hypotension caused, probably, by a spread immunocomplex damage. The presence of depression in Horton's Arteritis and its improvement with the complete recovery would show, perhaps, a central catecholaminergic failure.
