Abstract:
:A 61-year-old woman, suffering from classic seropositive rheumatoid arthritis with rheumatoid nodule histologically documented, developed temporal arteritis. HLA-DR typing revealed the presence of DR3 and DR4 antigens. The findings from previous studies support the association of HLA-DR antigens, giant cell arteritis-polymyalgia rheumatica and rheumatoid arthritis, and suggest the participation of a common immunogenetic mechanism in their pathogenesis.
