Immunology of Giant Cell Arteritis
Circulation Research, 2023Giant cell arteritis is an autoimmune disease of medium and large arteries, characterized by granulomatous inflammation of the three-layered vessel wall that results in vaso-occlusion, wall dissection, and aneurysm formation.

Giant cell, or temporal, arteritis is a vasculitis of the medium and large arteries that preferentially involves vessels originating from the arch of the aorta. Classically, this disease manifests in an older individual with new-onset persistent headache, an abnormal temporal artery on examination, and increased serum inflammatory markers. The level of

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is the most common vasculitis of the elderly. The diagnosis can be challenging at times because of the limitation of the American Rheumatology Association (ARA) classification criteria and the significant proportion of biopsy-negative patients with GCA.

The Lancet, 2014 In July 2013, a 64-year-old woman presented to her optometrist with a 4-day history of intermittent blurred vision in the left eye with a left-sided headache. The patient was unsure whether she had had jaw claudication or scalp tenderness. She had no previous ocular history except spectacles for hyperopia and presbyopia. She had been taking diclofenac,

Giant cell arteritis is a medium- and large-vessel vasculitis, the most prevalent systemic vasculitis in subjects over age 60. Clinical features are miscellaneous and sometimes misleading. Elevated acute-phase responses, such as a high erythrocyte sedimentation rate and increased levels of C-reactive protein, are important clues to the diagnosis, which

Giant cell arteritis is the most common vasculitis in Caucasians. The aetiology of this disease remains uncertain. This article reviews some of the recent work in epidemiology and pathology in this field, with particular regard to the immunohistochemical findings in temporal artery biopsy specimens.

Giant cell arteritis is an important cause of blindness in patients over 60 years of age. We attempt to identify the important clinical aspects in the diagnosis and management of this disorder, so that treatment may be instituted expeditiously to limit visual loss.In addition, we identify current areas of standards in the investigation and treatment of

The American College of Rheumatology 1990 criteria for the classification of giant cell arteritis.
Arthritis & Rheumatism, 2010Criteria for the classification of giant cell (temporal) arteritis were developed by comparing 214 patients who had this disease with 593 patients with other forms of vasculitis.

Giant cell arteritis is a generalized inflammatory disorder involving large and medium-sized arteries. The etiology is unknown, although an autoimmune pathogenesis seems probable. In view of the clinical similarities between patients with positive biopsy findings for polymyalgia rheumatica and those with negative biopsy findings, many authors favor the
