We report a case of vasculitis in a 67-year-old woman who successively developed over a four-month period clinical manifestations suggestive of rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, sicca, syndrome and finally giant cell arteritis. All her symptoms resolved promptly upon discontinuation of enalapril and none recurred over the five-year follow-up period. The only residual manifestation is Jaccoud's arthropathy of the hands.
