Abstract
In 95% cases glucocorticoids were the most used, with prednisone in being used in 68.5% of cases. Although there is no unanimity criteria regarding the dosage and duration, 73.8% cases were treated with a prednisone dose from 15 to 20 mg/day (median 18.2 mg/day, SD 8.9). Two-thirds (66.1%) of cases were treated for 3 to 6 months (median 5.3 months, SD 3.8). A case is presented that serves as a common thread of these observations.
