“…Among 21 cases identi- fied in a PubMed search for JTA [1,2,5,[7][8][9][10][11][12] and the present case, most of the JTA patients were younger than 40 years old, except for two cases. Males were predominantly affected with JTA than female (15 males in 21 cases).…”

“…Whether JTA is an independent entity or a presentation of KD or angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is difficult to define, until now, histologic findings have been the key to differentiate these entities. Compared to histologic findings of JTA or KD, ALHE showed vascular proliferation by thick-walled blood vessels lined by epithelioid, hypertrophic endothelial cells with vacuolated cytoplasm and vesicular nuclei [7]. The Doppler ultrasound may be a useful imaging tool for JTA.…”

Bilateral Involvement of Juvenile Temporal Arteritis Associated with Kimura Disease

Juvenile temporal arteritis (JTA) is a localized nodular arteritis confined to the temporal artery without evidence of systemic inflammation, and it occurs mainly in patients younger than 50 years. From the first case report, the pathological features of JTA have been suspected to be the morphological equivalent of Kimura disease (KD), which has been supported further by the concurrent cases of JTA with KD. We present the first case of bilateral JTA accompanying KD, which was confirmed by histological and ultrasound evaluations and supports the hypothesis that JTA is a manifestation of KD. The un-excised JTA lesion was resolved completely after corticosteroid therapy with no recurrence. (J Rheum Dis 2018;25:65-68)

“…These patients complained of painless nodules on their temple, and the pathologic findings revealed nongiant cell inflammation of temporal arteries [4]. From then on until February 2019, according to our literature review through PubMed and Scopus, 18 more cases have been reported [23567891011121314151617181920]. Including the present case, a total of 23 cases of JTA were reported and their mean age was 27 years (range, 7 to 44 years) and there was the male predominance (18 men and 5 women).…”

“…The histopathologic findings include intima hyperplasia and disruption of internal elastic lamina, which could also present in GCA, and lymphoeosinophilic infiltrate and its perivascular extension, and endothelial hyperplasia, which usually present in JTA, not in GCA [21114]. The most important difference from GCA is that multinucleated giant cells and granulomatous infiltrates are not observed in JTA [1014].…”

“…Since the first report of JTA in 1975 [4], a total of 22 cases have been reported so far [234567891011121314151617181920], but its etiology, pathogenesis, and long-term prognosis are still unknown. Although JTA is a localized disease, it is often accompanied by peripheral blood eosinophilia, so some authors have suggested the concept of JTA with eosinophilia [81213].…”

Concurrent bilateral juvenile temporal arteritis and hypereosinophilic syndrome: a case report and review of the literature

Most of temporal arteritis occurs in the older patient over 50 years old, and the histopathologic finding shows a granulomatous inflammation, so this called giant cell arteritis. However, the young patients also present with a nodular lesion in their temple, and juvenile temporal arteritis (JTA) should be considered as one of the differential diagnosis, although it is very rare. For both diagnosis and treatment of JTA, excisional biopsy is essential. The pathologic finding of the temporal artery shows panarteritis with lymphoeosinophilic infiltrates, but no giant cell or granulomatous lesion. JTA is a localized disease with low level of systemic inflammatory marker, so the symptom is usually relieved by excision of affected lesion. Peripheral blood eosinophilia present in some cases of JTA, but its relation with clinical course and prognosis is not yet been known. Herein, we report the case of a 24-year-old man diagnosed with concurrent JTA and hypereosinophilic syndrome. We also reviewed the literature of JTA focusing on the impact of combined peripheral eosinophilia on the course of the disease. Combined peripheral eosinophilia may increase the risk of recurrence of JTA after local treatment such as excision only.
