This paper is aimed at reporting the largest JTA series and to compare it to literature data to better evaluate its characteristics at diagnosis, its evolution and treatment options. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective and descriptive multicentric study in France by identifying adult patients under the age of 50 which had a pathological temporal artery biopsy owing to the presence of a temporal arteritis. Patients with temporal arteritis as a manifestation of systemic vasculitis were excluded. RESULTS: We included 12 patients and the literature review identified 32 cases described in 27 articles, thus a total of 44 patients - 34 men and 10 women - with a median age of 30 and a maximum of 44. All patients presented either a lump in the temporal region or prominent temporal arteries, and 47.7% of patients suffered from headaches. Only 11.4% of patients presented general symptoms and 6.8% a biological inflammatory syndrome; 34.1% had peripheral blood eosinophilia; 83.7% presented a single episode and complete excision without further treatment was documented for 72.7%. Pathology analysis revealed infiltrate of inflammatory cells in the arterial wall in 97.6% of patients but also sparse giant cells for 25% and granuloma for 22.9%, perivascular extension of the inflammation for 82.6%, and presence of lymphoid follicles or germinal centres for 60%. Clinical relapses were present in 16.3% of cases. CONCLUSIONS: JTA is a rare, localized and benign disease. The majority of cases have only one episode which is cured by local surgery.Lire moins >
