In a 24-year-old patient the diagnosis panarteritis nodosa intra vitam was made. A terminal renal insufficiency was the dominating symptom. In addition to this besides fever in the patient were clinical symptoms on the side of the lung, the musculature and the skin. The diagnosis was confirmed by means of skin-muscle-biopsy from the clinically affected area. As was shown by biopsy in the patient who died after a stay in hospital of 9 days, the case in question was a multiple affection of the organs by panarteritis. A success in therapy could not be achieved. In the discussion clinic and diagnosis of this relatively rare disease are briefly explained.
