La artritis reumatoidea maligna se define como la presencia de manifestaciones extraarticulares severas debidas a vasculitis. Habitualmente, ésta se observa en varones, tabaquistas, con enfermedad de larga data y marcada actividad. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 52 años de edad, tabaquista, con artritis reumatoidea de 1 año de evolución, que ingresa con isquemia crítica de ambas piernas. Biopsia: vasculitis con componente de endarteritis obliterante y panarteritis nodosa. Evoluciona tórpidamente requiriendo amputación a pesar del tratamiento anticoagulante, antiagregante e inmunosupresor con corticoides, ciclofosfamida y el uso de análogos de prostaglandinas.
