In a significant number of patients the differential diagnosis between elderly-onset rheumatoid arthritis (EORA) and polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is very difficult because of the lack of specific serum markers. Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP Abs) have recently been shown to be highly specific for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This is the first study addressing the utility of these antibodies in the differential diagnosis between EORA and PMR.
