Abstract
We report a case of vasculitis in a 67-year-old woman who successively developed over a four-month period clinical manifestations suggestive of rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, sicca, syndrome and finally giant cel l arteritis, All her symptoms resolved promptly upon discontinuation o f enalapril and none recurred over the five-year follow-up period, The only residual manifestation is Jaccoud's arthropathy of the hands.
