Popis: From a study of the course of Horton's disease in a population of 41 patients followed up for 3 to 14 years, the cases of 5 patients presenting with peripheral inflammatory arthritis were singled out and analyzed. In all five cases, the condition was a subacute, seronegative, symmetrical polyarthritis affecting mostly the wrists, the metacarpophalangeal joints and the knees. In 2 patients radiology showed articular lesions. As in other cases found in the literature, these raise the problem of rheumatoid arthritis-Horton's disease association or true "Hortonian" arthritis.
