Clinical Outcomes of Myocarditis after Moderate-Dose Steroid Therapy in Systemic Sclerosis: A Pilot Study.
Conclusions: Moderate-dose steroid therapy may improve myocarditis in SSc. A proportion of patients died due to cardiac complications during treatment, particularly those with high hs-cTnT, high NT-proBNP, and impaired LVEF. This trial is registered with NCT03607071.

P030 Antiphospholipid syndrome and giant cell arteritis: a coincidence or connection?
Conclusion In summary, this is a case of GCA and APS, treated with prednisolone, aspirin, warfarin and tocilizumab. There is increasing evidence describing the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies in patients with vasculitis. However, the role of these antibodies in GCA and the clinical significance rema ins unclear. This case reports highlights the need for physicians to consider APS in patients who have a history of GCA and subsequently develop arterial or venous embolic events.Disclosure L. Sammut: None.E. Htut: None.

P211 Aortitis: clinical experience within a tertiary centre
Conclusion Systemic inflammatory response syndrome was the commonest presenting feature. Those without GCA-like symptoms received a delayed diagnosis, which increases the risk of preventable vascular events. CT-PET remained the main diagnostic tool. Prednisolone treatment was prolonged with burdensome side- effects. Methotrexate remained the DMARD of choice, but leflunomide also showed good results. Vascular complications are common and need attention.Disclosure R.S. Andev: None.N. Ahmad: None.R. Luqmani: None.S. Dubey: None.

Multiple Cerebral Infarctions Accompanied by Subcortical and Subarachnoid Hemorrhaging in Bilateral Border Zone Areas in a Patient with Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis
Intern Med. 2021 Sep 4. doi: 10.2169/internalmedicine.7999-21. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is often associated with peripheral neuropathy, but reports of central nervous system involvement are quite rare. We herein report a patient with EGPA first identified as having hypereosinophilia who later developed asthma, eosinophilic otitis media, sinusitis, and hemorrhagic colitis. She subsequently developed hemiparesis. Head magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple cerebral infarctions with subcortical and subarachnoid hemorrhaging colocalized at the bilateral border zon...

Case Report: Myxedema Coma Caused by Immunoglobulin A Vasculitis in a Patient With Severe Hypothyroidism
Myxedema coma is a critical disorder with high mortality rates. Disruption of the compensatory mechanism for severe and long-term hypothyroidism by various causes leads to critical conditions, including hypothermia, respiratory failure, circulatory failure, and central nervous system dysfunction. Infectious diseases, stroke, myocardial infarction, sedative drugs, and cold exposure are considered the main triggers for myxedema coma. A 59-year-old Japanese woman presented with bilateral painful purpura on her lower legs. She was diagnosed with coexisting immunoglobulin A (IgA) vasculitis and severe IgA vasculitis with nephri...

Internal carotid artery occlusion related to poorly controlled rheumatoid arthritis presenting with continuous hand shaking: A case report and literature review
Medicine (Baltimore). 2022 Mar 4;101(9):e29001. doi: 10.1097/MD.0000000000029001.ABSTRACTRATIONALE: Limb-shaking syndrome is a special manifestation of transient ischemic attack, resulting from internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion. Extra-articular manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are likely to occur in patients with severe or active RA. RA may accelerate atherosclerotic processes through inflammation. Here, we present a case of ICA occlusion related to poorly controlled RA that presented with continuous hand shaking.PATIENT CONCERNS: A 73-year-old man with a history of poorly controlled RA developed total occ...

Immunoglobulin G4-Related Disease Presenting as Temporal Bone Lesion with Facial Nerve Palsy
We report a case of IgG4-RD with infiltration of the temporal bone and surrounding structures in a patient with systemic vasculitis on systemic steroids. A 31-year-old woman presented with right-sided facial weakness, headache, and right ear hearing loss. On examination, redness and retraction of the right tympanic membrane and facial paresis (House-Brackman IV) were noted. Computed tomography imaging showed mastoiditis, temporal lobe stroke, and brain abscess. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed infiltration in the infratemporal fossa, nasopharynx, spreading along the Eustachian tube and perineurally along the branche...
