[Bronchopulmonary manifestations of Horton's disease. Apropos of a case].
A 78 years old woman developed a pulmonary recurrence four years after the diagnosis of temporal arteritis. The lung biopsy showed the same giant-cells granulomatous lesions with central vessels as the initial biopsy. The recurrence in giant cells-arteritis has already been published but the pulmonary involvement had never been illustrated before by histological data. The difficulties of diagnosis in case of granulomatous angiitis on lung samples is emphasized.
