ABSTRACT

El síndrome de sinovitis simétrica seronegativa remitente del anciano con edema y fóvea (remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema) (RS3PE), se caracteriza por la aparición de una poliartritis simétrica bilateral seronegativa asociada a edema con fóvea en el dorso de las manos, y factor reumatoide negativo. Su asociación a tuberculosis no se había descrito previamente. Se presenta el caso de un paciente de 89 años que consultó por anorexia de mes y medio de evolución acompañada de edema en manos y pies, con factor reumatoide negativo. Presentaba un infiltrado pulmonar, cuyo estudio microbiológico reveló la infección por Mycobacterium tuberculosis

ABSTRACT

La pericarditis es una manifestación inusual de la arteritis de células gigantes. En este trabajo se describe el caso de una paciente diagnosticada 3 años antes de polimialgia reumática por la que había seguido controles periódicos en los que no que no se había observado ninguna complicación. A la edad de 69 años consultó por febrícula, tos seca, anorexia y dolor abdominal difuso y la ecocardiografía mostró un derrame pericárdico. Las exploraciones complementarias descartaron procesos infecciosos o neoplásicos. Se inició tratamiento corticoideo mejorando la sintomatología en pocos días, resolviéndose el derrame pericárdico en 3 meses


Pericarditis is an unusual manifestation of gigantic cell arteritis. The following essay describes the case of a female patient who had been diagnosed, three years earlier, with several types of rheumatic myalgia, and because of this, she had had periodical tests in which no complications at all had been observed. At the age of 69, this female patient consulted the doctor for mild fever, dry cough, anorexia and diffuse abdominal pain. The echocardiography showed pericardium discharge and complementary explorations ruled out infectious or neoplasia processes. A corticoid treatment was started and the symptomatology improved in a few days, the pericardium discharge being solved in 3 months
