FDG PET‐CT images of giant cell arteritis with mesenteric involvement. ABSTRACT Giant cell arteritis‐associated mesenteric vasculitis is a rare manifestation and often carries significant mortality and morbidity. We present a case of GCA with mesenteric involvement that was at first diagnostically challenging, contributed to by a history of functional ...
