OBJECTIVES: Describe patients with noninfectious aortitis and their response to treatment in a regional hospital.
METHODS: Review of patients with noninfectious aortitis, diagnostic technique used and immunosuppressive therapy received.
RESULTS: We report 8 patients (7 women and one man) diagnosed with aortitis by positron emission tomography (PET). The mean age was 69years (interquartile range [IQR] 62-72.2). Three months of treatment with tocilizumab improved symptoms, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein level (P<.001 and P<.012, respectively) in the 6 patients in whom it was used.
CONCLUSIONS: Tocilizumab was an effective and safe treatment in those patients diagnosed with aortitis refractory to steroids and conventional immunosuppressive therapy.
