title: Temporal arteritis in Sjögren's syndrome.
abstract: We report the first case of co-existing temporal arteritis and Sjögren's syndrome in the English language literature. Characteristic clinical and laboratory findings of both disorders were present. The combination of these two illnesses could be on the basis of chance alone or there may be a common etiology. Temporal arteritis could therefore be an addition to the spectrum of vasculitis diseases seen in Sjögren's syndrome.
