==[[Temporal arteritis overview|Overview]]==


The disorder may coexist (in one quarter of cases) with [[polymyalgia rheumatica]] (PMR), which is characterized by sudden onset of pain and stiffness in muscles ([[pelvis]], [[shoulder]]) of the body and seen in the elderly. Other diseases related with temporal arteritis are systemic [[lupus erythematosus]], [[rheumatoid arthritis]] and severe [[infection]]s.
==[[Temporal arteritis historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]==


This diagnosis should be considered in any patient over the age of 50 with the new onset of [[headache]], particularly is the [[erythrocyte sedimentation rate]] is elevated.

Prompt treatment with steroids is a medical emergency to reduce the risk of [[blindness]].
