| heal.abstract | A 73-year-old woman was admitted to hospital with a one-month history of temporal headache, low-grade fever, fatigue, nocturnal sweats and pleural pain. On the fifth day after admission she developed chest pain at the left site of the thorax, productive cough and progressive dyspnea. A pleural effusion was revealed on physical examination, as well as a bilateral temporal artery thickening. An erythrocyte sedimentation rate of 135 mm in the 1st hour was found. Chest X-ray showed left pleural effusion. Thoracocentesis revealed serous fluid exudate. A percutaneous pleural biopsy showed only minimal inflammatory changes. Temporal artery biopsy showed giant cell arteritis. The patient received prednisone 60 mg/daily with a dramatic clinical response. Pleural effusion is a rare manifestation of temporal arteritis; only seven cases have been reported worldwide. We present a new case of temporal arteritis with pleurisy. | en |
